FERC reformed regional transmission policy for the first time in a decade with #Order1920. But what will it change? Ted Bloch-Rubin shares his insights, focusing on the requirement to include specific ATTs in planning studies⚡ This requirement to include ATTs (alternative transmission technologies), might seem familiar as it echoes a very similar mandate in Order 2023 (which focused on reforming interconnection processes), albeit the specific technologies mandated for consideration actually differ slightly. Advanced power flow control (APFC) is included in both rules, recognizing the value of being able to divert power from overloaded facilities to underutilized ones in both general transmission planning and in supporting the connection of new generation.

🔊Did you know that N-SIDE can solve grid congestion? At N-SIDE Energy, we look for ways to help Transmission System Operators (TSOs) to solve network congestion problems. A grid congestion occurs when the current through a transmission line exceeds its maximum capacity, for example, due to high electricity demand during peak periods.😯 In this article, Noémie Verstraete explains the different ways of solving grid congestion, the related cost, and how N-SIDE has developed a decision-support software to reduce congestion.👏 On top of the algorithm, an easy-to-use demonstration application was built to visualize better the impact of applying the remedial actions suggested by the N-SIDE algorithm. Learn more about this decision-support software product for congestion management in grid operations 👉 https://lnkd.in/dHW4m5Hh #SystemOperators #GridOperations #MathematicalOptimization

No surprise here: the generator interconnection process is "outdated, slow, unpredictable, and sorely in need of reform." But what can be done? In this blog post, Caitlin Marquis and Doug P. identify the grades from United's interconnection scorecard and explain how each RTO region can improve their interconnection processes. Perhaps the most important takeaway? Compliance with FERC Order No. 2023 won't be enough to maintain reliability and meet state clean energy goals. Additional improvements will be needed to fix the interconnection process, and states and FERC will need to ensure that RTOs respond at the speed and scale needed. And don't miss the fact sheets for a deeper dive into each RTO region. #interconnection #FERC #cleanenergy #advancedenergyunited #order2023 #PJM #ERCOT

The short answer is a lack of proper long-term planning. The bloated interconnection queues may be the most visible issue in transitioning to clean power generation, and FERC Order 2023 represents a promising fix. But will it highlight the silly game of “whack a mole” being played in the way we execute our electric grid planning strategy? What is needed is a holistic approach that maps the key critical path items and systematically addresses them in the proper timeframes. Have FERC Orders 1920, 1977, and 2023 got us closer to that approach? We’ll wrap up how much the needle has been moved in tomorrow’s post.

🌟 Exciting developments in Electric Regional Transmission Planning 🌟 FERC recently announced the long-awaited Order 1920. This historic rule aims to revolutionize long-term electric regional transmission planning, support the transition to a cleaner energy future, and address critical infrastructure needs. Key highlights of the new rule: 📊 Enhanced planning: FERC emphasizes a proactive approach, requiring regional transmission planners to identify and anticipate future grid needs over a 20-year horizon. ☀ Integration of clean energy: The rule facilitates the integration of renewable energy sources and emerging technologies by ensuring planning efforts align with state and federal clean energy policies. 💰 Cost allocation reforms: New methodologies for cost allocation will ensure that the beneficiaries of transmission projects fairly share their costs, fostering more equitable and efficient project funding. 🤝 Stakeholder collaboration: Improved processes for stakeholder engagement in planning efforts will bolster transparency and inclusiveness, ensuring diverse perspectives are considered. This landmark rule underscores FERC's commitment to modernizing the grid, enhancing reliability, and driving the adoption of clean energy. As we advance towards a sustainable energy future, collaborative and strategic regional planning will be the cornerstone of a resilient and efficient transmission infrastructure. https://lnkd.in/gbkGiPFd #CleanEnergy #SustainableFuture #EnergyInnovation #TransmissionPlanning #FERC #RenewableEnergy #GridModernization
