LCG, February 20, 2026--The EIA today issued an "in-brief analysis" that estimates U.S. power plant developers and operators plan to complete a record installation of 86 GW of new, utility-scale electric generating capacity that is connected to the U.S. power grid in 2026. Last year, 53 GW of new capacity was added to the grid, which was the largest capacity installation in a single year since 2002. Thus the estimate of 86 GW of new capacity in 2026 is a whopping 33 GW greater than the year prior. It should be noted that over 20 GW of the 86 GW of new capacity this year is estimated to be completed in December.

Wisconsin Power Line Project Approved
LCG, Nov. 24, 2003--An area of northern Wisconsin that has been associated with transmission congestion for at least three years has been approved for an $8.2 million transmission project to be built by American Transmission Co.The 115-kilovolt line will connect Tomahawk and Rhinelander, following the go-ahead from the state's Public Service Commission. American Transmission Co., which was created three years ago, is the operator of transmission lines in both eastern Wisconsin and some of Michigan's Upper Pensinsula.The congestion on the transmission path to Rhinelander was serious enough this past summer that diesel generators were connected by ATC and Wisconsin Public Service Corp. in order to prevent supply shortfalls. Actual construction of the line should start next fall, with operation planned to begin around June 2005.
