U.S. grid regions can improve their interregional transmission planning processes to build more high-voltage capacity! These critical lines allow available power to travel to weather-stricken areas, helping reduce the risk of blackouts.

A new analysis by NC State Univ 🐺 engineers found that this👇 #NCGA #energy bill (SB266) could cost Duke Energy’s customers in NC up to $23 BILLION more by 2050, due to expected fuel price spikes at natural gas power plants. See more details below…

Yesterday U.S. Department of Energy released a report warning of outages if 104 GW of planned retirements by 2030 were to happen. The report was written by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and NREL. The methodology is sound, but the assumptions and conclusions are not. This is my initial take 🧵 energy.gov/sites/default/…

As wind energy development accelerates, so does opposition to projects. We're making American Clean Power (ACP)'s Model Wind Ordinance available, providing officials a framework to regulate wind farms in a way that supports economic dev & landowner participation. shorturl.at/DcehP

“One of the bitter ironies of this bill is it’s been billed as something to lower costs for working Americans. It will absolutely raise costs...at the same time stripping away their ability to actually manage their own costs through DG #Solar, #EE & #EVs" nevadacurrent.com/2025/07/09/ugl…

It's time for real leadership in Louisiana. The state is at a cross in the road - meet the challenge of interregional transmission planning between MISO & SPP or let the next load shed event remind us of what we have failed to build. shorturl.at/xJAzV

Most people are aware that solar & wind energy are weather-dependent, but so is natural gas and nuclear energy, which both require significant cooling systems to operate well. Weather impacts the grid from almost every angle. shorturl.at/Q9N0f

So far in 2025, utilities have requested $29 billion in rate hikes - and nearly half of those customers impacted by hikes are in the South, where utilities have requested a combined $1.8billion in rate increases. shorturl.at/fVIXv

New report from ACEG & Grid Strategies shows transmission construction not keeping up with demand, jeopardizing reliability, affordability, and economic competitiveness. HVDC lines are faster, cheaper, and smarter—but we’re building too few. bit.ly/4f1Beea

Southern Renewable Energy Association Transmission Director Andy Kowalczyk said MISO and SPP should probably model systems stressed by summertime, especially given the springtime instances of load shedding in Louisiana for both RTOs. shorturl.at/WehhO
