Northern Indiana Public Service Co.’s leadership said they would test their new GenCo spinoff business out with a $6 billion to $7 billion grid investment from a large, yet unnamed customer.

MISO has slashed earlier renewable energy estimates and boosted natural gas contributions in its transmission planning futures in a rethink brought on by the Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Clean Grid Alliance claims new information MISO has released on its interconnection queue fast lane definitively shows the plan would be detrimental to independent power producers and should be rejected by FERC.

MISO confirmed it will make a second bid to FERC to establish a temporary fast lane in its interconnection queue, this time limiting the process to 50 generation projects.

MISO generation developers pushed back on MISO’s cost allocation of the $1.65 billion Joint Targeted Interconnection Queue, reportedly saying MISO’s late-stage alterations have eroded the value of the seams planning.

Groups of generation owners and developers have asked MISO to adopt a queue fast lane only as a last resort and employ a more limited process that involves scoring criteria to gain entry.

Protests and endorsements have turned up in response to MISO’s second attempt with FERC to annually cap project submittals to its interconnection queue based on a megawatt value.

Clean energy organizations are prodding MISO to contemplate prospective load and generation simultaneously, with Clean Grid Alliance asking MISO to coordinate its annual transmission studies with its interconnection queue studies.

MISO hopes to file a proposal in February to create an exclusive, faster route through its interconnection queue for generation projects that are key to maintaining resource adequacy.
