New @Edison_Electric + Concentric report: large load growth can help modernize the grid. The durable path isn't off-grid islands — it's a stronger, more interconnected grid that meets rising demand reliably and cost-effectively. The case for building.

The Champlain Hudson Power Express transmission line is officially online — 1,250 MW into New York City, ahead of schedule and ready for summer.

This is what transmission delivers.

@NERC_Official just issued its third-ever Level 3 alert, warning that load growth is outpacing grid planning. A well-planned transmission system protects every customer connected to it — closing the planning gap is urgent for everyday ratepayers.

The grid is "on par with the interstate highway system as an essential platform for growth."

@robinsonmeyer in @nytopinion on why America's aging transmission system is driving up costs — and what it'll take to fix it.

"America's aging and constrained electric grid infrastructure poses an increasing threat to national defense."

From a Presidential Determination issued last week — a welcome, bipartisan recognition that grid modernization is a national priority.

Congress is examining the state of the grid this week.

Our data shows: transmission bottlenecks are costing customers billions, and delay makes it worse. $5 in benefits for every $1 invested in well-planned transmission.

As @HouseCommerce examines Winter Storm Fern today, a familiar pattern is emerging:

Prices spike in some regions while cheaper power is stuck elsewhere.

We saw it during Uri. We saw it again this winter.

A more connected grid helps solve that.

@FERC's approval of @SPPorg's Consolidated Planning Process (CPP) is a major step toward smarter transmission planning and faster generator interconnection.

As @RosnerFERC wrote:
“CPP represents the innovation America needs.”

Last month ACEG convened state utility commissioners in DC to discuss our 2025 Transmission Planning & Development Report Card.

The takeaway: progress is happening, but transmission planning remains uneven.
