CAISO transmission planning process
The construction of new data centers could lead to transmission line overloads in the Bay Area, CAISO forecasts show.
CAISO is soliciting bids for two transmission projects in the San Francisco Bay Area to prepare the state for more projected data center load in the coming decade.
CAISO's Board of Governors approved the ISO's 2024/25 transmission plan to build out 31 new projects in the region over the next eight to 10 years.
Data centers are contributing to significant load growth and project needs in Silicon Valley, according to CAISO representatives speaking at the kickoff meeting for the ISO’s 2024/25 transmission planning process.
