The first National Electric Transmission Infrastructure Summit heard concerns over how to pay for grid modernization and FERC's lack of a quorum.

The SPP Seams Steering Committee welcomed two new members, while the RTO set another record for wind generation.

The PUCT granted the Lubbock Power & Light request to delay a decision on who will pay for studies related to their planned move to the ERCOT grid.

SPP officials and stakeholders the RTO's plethora of wind energy, the search for a new Market Monitoring Unit director and Mountain West Transmission Group.

FERC approved SPP’s new rules for how it commits and pays “multi-configuration” combined cycle plants.

The Southwest Power Pool Z2 Task Force does not appear close to a solution for replacing its bedeviling crediting system for transmission upgrades.

Xcel Energy reported fourth-quarter revenue of $2.8 billion, up from $2.65 billion a year ago, but short of the expected $3.5 billion.

SPP’s Regional State Committee (SPP RSC) accepted a working group’s proposal to leave unchanged their safe-harbor thresholds.

FERC rejected SPP’s proposed method for measuring generators’ reactive power, saying it said would result in excessive and unnecessary costs.

Southwest Power Pool members elected 40-year industry veteran Mark Crisson to the RTO’s Board of Directors Tuesday, expanding the board to 10 members.
