this is an important report brief for @NARUC state regulators and state legislators to read as they consider ways to increase grid flexibility, one of the many approaches needed to address affordability and the need for grid modernization and build out. No solution will solve for the challenge, but grid flex is a critical component and this brief walks you through the ratemaking, planning, interconnection and BYOC aspects of achieving effective policy in your state.

.@FERC ordered PJM to offer non-firm transmission service during normal conditions. In response, PJM . . . didn't do that.
Travis Kavulla@TKavulla

Late last year, @FERC -- occasionally reticent & vague -- actually acted quite clearly to establish innovative new transmission services to make the most of @pjminterconnect's grid. But now: Spot the difference btw what FERC ordered & what PJM is offering on compliance 🧵

There’s no single fix for electricity affordability. But states can act now to lower costs while planning for long-term demand growth. More in our new op-ed in Utility Dive. utilitydive.com/news/4-afforda…

Make sure large new loads pay their own costs. Smart policies for data centers and other large loads can deter speculative interconnection requests and ensure new demand supports costs for existing customers.

While there’s no shortage of important longer-term policy reform needs to address rising electricity costs, there are several policies states can implement now to drive cost savings more quickly. Here are 4 ideas that Lori Bird and I outlined in a new @UtilityDive piece:

Hey DMV Energy Friends - this Sat, @ElectrifyDC is offering a chance for some hands on interaction with the latest DER techs. A way to experience some of the tech we are always talking about! Check it out electrifydc.org/der/. Hope to see you there!

SPP showing that it's possible to allocate regional transmission costs to data centers. It's proposing 3 options to stakeholders. This is a HUGE missing piece to ensure data centers are paying for all infrastructure built for them.

Thx @EnergyLawJeff. I've been thinking about this in the generation context. Utilities across the Mid-Atlantic, at least, are chomping at the bit for their states to revert to vertical integration or some version of owning the power plants themselves. We shouldn't forget that all of the chaos around data centers hasn't changed utility incentives. States should proceed with extreme caution when entertaining re-regulation proposals under the guise of affordability amidst increasing demand.
Jeff Dennis@EnergyLawJeff

In a time of surging demand and rising costs, removing competing sources of investment capital would be a tragic mistake. Yet states, and now the White House and FERC, are facing increasing pressure from monopolies to do just that. 1/ subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews…

Congratulations to @FERC Commissioners and Staff on a strong order that moves the ball forward on large load interconnection and fair cost allocation. It’s ambitious but critical.

The power of status quo in the electricity business is uniquely formidable. Marissa Gillett provided leadership on behalf of customers, through the morass. Too often, still, women brave enough to take on the challenge are falsely attacked and implicated. What a loss for CT!

Lots of details that will require some hard thinking by @FERC and stakeholders but an exciting opportunity (enough to harken me back to #energytwitter!)
