A powerful explainer on the key role the grid plays in our lives, economy & national security. Though it first aired on @PBS stations 7 years ago, the core message has only grown more urgent, the time to modernize & expand the transmission system is now. youtube.com/watch?v=bvLw_j…

More than 100 utilities use transmission formula rates (TFRs) vs. ~30 who employ stated rates. A LEI primer explains how TFRs balance the interests of customers, @FERC, utilities, & other industry stakeholders. ➡️wiresgroup.com/primer-on-tran… #transmission #TFRs

...& energy production will "require us to build new transmission at a pace & scale we have not seen in generations," said @GasteigerLarry. But the investment in grid optimization must also be paired with new construction. "Optimizing yesterday’s grid will not be enough."

DOE's SPARK funding will help spur ATT adoption, unlock capacity on existing grid & improve efficiency. ATTs are vital tools, but they are just one part of the solution, as @GasteigerLarry shares in @UtilityDive: AI/data centers, domestic manufacturing... utilitydive.com/news/doe-makes…

Delays to beneficial transmission projects aren't helping with affordability concerns. Instead, project delays are driving up consumer costs. Reporting from @SPGlobal's @zackhale on findings from Grid Strategies' illuminating report. spglobal.com/market-intelli… #transmission

The RTO Participation Incentive has helped support stable membership in regional grid organizations by transmission owners over nearly two decades. That translates into real value for customers - $3-5 billion in benefits annually. wiresgroup.com/category/trans… #TransmissionDelivers

With affordability top of mind the Construction Work in Progress (CWIP) Incentive matters. The use of CWIP can translate into billions of dollars of customer savings. Learn more about CWIP & other cost-saving transmission incentives: wiresgroup.com/the-constructi… #transmission #grid

Collaboration is key to cost-effective transmission expansion according to Grid Strategies' analysis. Yet @FERC Order 1000 restricts sharing of the information efficient planning depends on. This costs ratepayers, in one region the inefficiencies exceeded $1B! #gridmodernization

The Abandoned Plant Incentive is a critical enabler of transmission, offering a low-cost "insurance policy" that offers great value to customers by keeping financing costs down for transmission development, very rarely leading to a “claim.” #gridmodernization #transmission

A big stride forward for this transmission effort that 3 WIRES members @GREnergyNews @ITCGrid @xcelenergy are developing in collaboration. PowerOn Midwest is a series of projects that will enhance grid reliability in the Upper Midwest. #TransmissionValue poweronmidwest.com
Great River Energy@GREnergyNews

Major milestone! Today Great River Energy and our partners @ITC Midwest and Xcel Energy filed our Certificate of Need application with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission for PowerOn Midwest — a series of new transmission projects built around a 765 kV backbone. This filing marks an important step toward strengthening energy reliability, supporting regional growth and connecting our members with efficient, reliable and lower-cost electricity across the Upper Midwest. Learn more at PowerOnMidwest.com. We also recently reached similar milestones for two other critical transmission line projects, the Maple River-Cuyuna and Fargo-Alexandria projects, all to help ensure reliability across the Upper Midwest region.

Delaying building needed transmission will only harm customers in the long run. It’s important to start investing in needed transmission and get customers those benefits now, not years later when costs will be higher and benefits are deferred.
WIRES@wiresgroup

Delaying needed transmission exacts a price on consumers, the economy & nat'l security. To realize the benefits of transmission - access to low cost generation, improved reliability & enabling the economic growth communities & the US needs - the time to invest in our grid is now.
