MISO Board Week focused on the industry shift underway as the RTO plans to get more transmission lines strung to bring record amounts of new capacity online.

NYISO plans to narrow the scope of its interconnection studies and revise related pro forma agreements to address increasing grid connection requests.

FERC approved CAISO's proposed changes to its generator interconnection process meant to speed the process and enhance grid reliability.

To decrease congestion, MISO is suggesting a tighter limit on how much new generation can affect the surrounding grid without triggering more network upgrades.

FERC issued a deficiency letter asking PJM how it’s proposed overhaul of its interconnection queue process will comply with prior commission orders.

FERC ruled for SPP in its dispute with Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc., over emergency energy transactions during the February 2021 winter storm.

MISO is resisting clean energy developers’ calls to allow penalty-free queue withdrawals for generation projects bogged down by SPP’s affected system studies.

MISO responded to criticism from Illinois lawmakers that it isn’t doing enough to bring renewables in its queue online to solve its capacity deficiency.

Sponsors of Illinois’ Climate and Equitable Jobs Act held a news teleconference to condemn “foot dragging” by MISO in getting new renewable energy online.

Stakeholders welcomed proposed changes to PJM’s interconnection procedures as long overdue but challenged the RTO’s timeline and transition plans.
