MISO Advances Second Phase of Expedited Resource Addition Studies The Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) has initiated the second phase of its Expedited Resource Addition Study (ERAS) program, accelerating the integration of new generation resources across MISO's North, Central, and South operational areas. The latest cycle brings 15 energy projects online, totaling a combined potential capacity of 6,100 MW, with renewable sources, natural gas facilities, and battery storage systems included in the portfolio, set to become operational between December 2027 and August 2028.

Twin State Clean Energy Link Proposed as Illinois Faces Potential Summer Bill Increases A New Hampshire utility has proposed the Twin State Clean Energy Link, a $2 billion, 211-mile transmission line designed to deliver renewable power from Canada to New England, entering the U.S. in Canaan, Vermont. Simultaneously, Illinois electricity consumers are facing potential summer bill increases. The Citizens Utility Board (CUB) anticipates Ameren Illinois customers will see electricity bills rise by 18% to 22% this summer. This translates to an additional $37.62 to $45.98 per month for a typical household consuming around 10,000 kilowatt-hours annually. The increase is driven by rising costs for reserve power, determined through auctions run by regional grid operators like the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO). CUB emphasizes that Ameren is not benefiting financially from this price increase, and the issue relates to the supply of electricity, not delivery charges. CUB expresses concern that higher bills could lead customers to compromise on safety, potentially foregoing cooling during dangerous heat. They promote energy efficiency measures such as weatherizing windows and doors. Customers are encouraged to communicate with Ameren to explore options like payment plans and energy conservation credits, and to investigate eligibility for energy assistance programs. CUB also warns against deceptive offers from alternative energy suppliers exploiting the price hike. Looking ahead, CUB intends to advocate for policy changes affecting regional grid operators like MISO to prevent future electricity price spikes. They attribute the issue to MISO's pricing methodology, which they believe negatively impacts affordability. Ameren's rates are expected to return to normal in October.

Southeast Louisiana Experiences Controlled Power Reduction Amid Region's Surge in Energy Demand Southeast Louisiana experienced a deliberate power reduction Sunday, leaving approximately 25,000 Cleco customers in St. Tammany Parish without electricity. Cleco officials are currently examining the factors that led to the extraordinary surge in energy demand that prompted the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) to initiate the controlled brownout. The action was necessary to alleviate stress on the regional power grid and avert a broader, more prolonged blackout. Jennifer Cahill, a Cleco spokesperson, explained that when electricity demand surpasses supply, deliberate, temporary power interruptions become necessary to safeguard grid stability. “We took the unusual step, as instructed by MISO, to implement controlled outages affecting customers in areas including Covington, Mandeville, Madisonville, Lacombe, and Franklinton,” Cahill stated. Those affected were without power for roughly two hours. While Cleco typically aims to provide customers with prior notification of planned outages, Cahill acknowledged that the urgency of the situation precluded advance warning. Cleco and MISO are collaborating to determine the root cause of Sunday’s event and to implement measures to prevent recurrence. This includes ongoing system monitoring and a joint investigation into the circumstances that triggered the power reduction.
