7/Transmission people tell me this is some of the best language we've ever seen, better than they expected. Interregional AND regional planning, and a backstop process that actually works, with clear, uniform rules on cost allocation.

As electricity demand climbs and bills become a top-of-mind concern for families, the fix isn't picking winners between energy sources, it's building the grid to move all-of-the-above American energy where it's needed.
New research from @CleanEnergyGrid backs this up: polling across the political spectrum shows that transmission investment is key to reliability and affordability, so long as the costs land on the large users driving new demand, not on everyday ratepayers.
Our country needs an affordable, reliable grid that meets rising demand without sticking families with the bill. Read more: cleanenergygrid.org/what-bre…

Thank you to @CleanEnergyGrid for naming me a 2026 Transmission Champion.
The award itself is already a great conversation piece, helping me to spread the message: Transmission is one of the most effective tools we have to keep energy affordable.

Over 18 months @NERC_Official studied the nation's interregional transmission capacity, finding a need for at least an additional 35 GW.
"The U.S. is falling far behind competitors; China is doing 80 times what we're doing here on high-voltage." - @RobGramlichDC

Why are 5 states - including the 3 from MISO South - filing complaints at FERC? They say these projects don’t serve the broader region & should be funded only by the states they pass through. An appealing message - but also an oversimplification. shorturl.at/zYZsv

What do @FERChatterjee and @Rich_Glick agree on? "We must maximize the use of the existing system through Advanced Transmission Technologies."
As former chairs of the @FERC, Republican and Democrat, they see opportunities for state regulators to encourage ATTs.

"Demand is projected to outstrip supply in the coming years, largely due to data centers powering artificial intelligence. That leaves the government no choice: To avoid an energy crisis, it needs to supersize the nation’s electrical grid" - WaPo Ed Board

Regions that rely on just 1–2 fuel sources risk widespread failures when extreme weather hits.
We hope you can see the problem here ⬇️

New report from @CleanEnergyGrid & 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

Transmission needed in PJM ⤵️
"This heat wave should be a wake-up call: doing nothing or continuing with piecemeal upgrades invites disaster. More Tx capacity would not only improve reliability and reduce the risk of rolling blackouts, but would also lower electricity costs."
👏"Leaders in Virginia and throughout PJM must accelerate planning and permitting for regional and interregional lines, coordinate with states and federal agencies, and streamline the process for connecting new energy projects."
