MISO can officially abandon the only competitive transmission project it has ever assigned to its South region, FERC ruled last week.

NextEra Energy Transmission and the Southern Renewable Energy Association are asking FERC to intervene in a last-ditch effect to save the only competitive transmission project ever approved for MISO South.

SREA said Duke Carolinas' and TVA's holiday blackouts were likely avoidable had they built robust transmission links and had better access to organized markets.

Entergy countered claims recently made to FERC that it is purposefully undermining transmission planning in MISO South.

SREA said while MISO may have a robust transmission planning process, FERC should know that the RTO’s South region does not share in it.

The Mississippi Public Service Commission is using an audit of MISO membership to question whether Entergy Mississippi should remain among the RTO’s membership, attracting blunt criticism from several renewable energy organizations.
