Elliot Mainzer said working at BPA taught him two critical lessons that he's applied at CAISO: the importance of "robust stakeholder engagement" and "collaborative working relationships."

NARUC’s Winter Policy Summit focused on the main issue facing the power industry — how to reliably and affordably interconnect new large load customers.

A consumer advocate says the affordability crisis dogging Northern Indiana Public Service Co.’s ratepayers is the product of an indulgent state legislature.

Limiting MISO large load solutions only to zero-injection scenarios misses the mark and can create a myriad of challenges now and in the future, writes David Sapper of the Clean Grid Alliance.

An alternative to connecting a large data center load to the electrical grid is a private, fully off-grid energy system, writes Travis Fisher of Cato.

The challenges and opportunities of meeting demand from new large loads like data centers took center stage at the National Association of State Energy Officials’ recent Energy Policy Conference.

Misguided NIMBYism or corporate welfare either obstructs the building of new data centers or compels taxpayers to subsidize them, writes energy consultant Kenneth W. Costello.

The new ERAS processes in MISO and SPP allow certain power plants to effectively jump the interconnection line, skipping ahead of hundreds of other projects already waiting their turn, writes Southern Renewable Energy Association Executive Director Simon Mahan.

Climate risk no longer is simply an environmental problem. It’s a governance, planning, and management problem. And it sits squarely on the desks of utility executives, system operators, and policymakers.

Fintan Slye, CEO of Great Britain’s National Energy System Operator, will join ERCOT CEO Pablo Vegas to kick off the ISO's third annual Innovation Summit that brings together industry stakeholders and thought leaders.
