Big news in #transmission! 🚨 The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) just announced $1.5 billion in investment for transmission projects across the country. Here are the four that were selected: Avangrid’s Aroostook Renewable project. ⚡111-mile line, 1,200 MW capacity, 4,230 jobs ⚡Will provide ISO-NE with access to #CleanEnergy generated in northern ME Phase two of Grid United’s Southline project. ⚡108-mile line, 1,000 MW capacity, 150 jobs ⚡ Will extend the larger Southline transmission project in AZ and NM further east Invenergy’s Cimarron Link project. ⚡408-mile HVDC line, 1,900 MW capacity, 3,620 jobs ⚡Will connect power from Texas County, OK to Tulsa, OK Pattern Energy Group's Southern Spirit project. ⚡320-mile HVDC line, 3,000 MW capacity, 1,155 jobs ⚡Will connect ERCOT with MISO-S and SOCO for the first time This investment, alongside DOE's final National Transmission Planning Study, reinforces the importance of modernizing our #grid to meet demand growth, enhance reliability, and keep energy costs low for all Americans. The new study shows that expanding transmission can save taxpayers $270-$490 billion by mid-century—delivering $1.60-$1.80 in savings for every dollar spent. As a follower of the Macro Grid Initiative, you get it. Upgrading our grid is a no-brainer. https://lnkd.in/eezBuEYJ

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced $1.5 billion for #transmission projects being developed by #ACOREMembers, including Avangrid, Grid United, Invenergy, and Pattern Energy Group. DOE also released the final National Transmission Planning Study, which finds the U.S. must significantly expand its transmission system to meet America’s demand growth and reliability needs. "The National Transmission Planning Study demonstrates how a substantial expansion of America’s transmission system that aligns with the vision of ACORE’s Macro Grid Initiative would save taxpayers $270-$490 billion by mid-century," says ACORE's President and CEO Ray Long. "We commend the Department of Energy for today’s investment...these investments will more than pay for themselves in benefits, and we congratulate the ACORE members behind each of these impressive projects."
