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.

Northeast Transmission Operators File to Create Seven-State RTO
LCG, August 27, 2002After 8 months of planning, ISO New England and the New York Independent System Operator have asked federal officials to approve a northeast regional transmission organization (NERTO). According to the grid operators, joining the regions transmission systems would stabilize the energy market and limit bottlenecks. Companies would also no longer incur fees charged for moving electricity from one system to the other. The northeast market proposal, filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, includes allowance for reserve, day-ahead, and real-time markets, as well as locational marginal pricing and financial transmission rights. NERTO would also adopt an independent board of directors and an advisory committee consisting of stakeholders. According to the transmission operators, the joint market would be established by 2005 or 2006, although the merger would begin as soon as January 2003.
