Articles about Grid Integration and Transmission

The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s analysis of the PJM Interconnection found substantial interconnection cost increases and tremendous growth of PJM’s interconnection project queue.

The Interconnection Innovation e-Xchange is offering technical assistance for stakeholders to improve interconnection practices and processes for electricity distribution systems and the transmission system.

WETO-funded research teams from three national laboratories are working proactively to strengthen security measures, policies, and information technology infrastructure.

Last year brought many advances in wind energy. Here are the most influential wind energy stories from 2022 from the Wind Energy Technologies Office.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory released a Notice of Intent to provide funds to address gaps in information on the real-world benefits and usage of grid-enhancing technologies.

The U.S. Departments of Energy, the Interior, Transportation, and Commerce will host the first-ever Floating Offshore Wind Shot Summit to discuss this ambitious initiative to reduce the cost of floating offshore wind energy.

The Department of Energy’s Wind Energy Technologies Office releases a $28 million funding opportunity that will address wind deployment barriers.

Addressing barriers to the deployment of wind energy—including offshore, land-based, and distributed—is imperative to lowering energy costs for consumers.

DOE’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) will conduct a literature review of West Coast offshore wind transmission research to date, covering potential interconnections along California, Oregon, and Washington coastlines.

The National Offshore Wind Research and Development Consortium (NOWRDC), which was established with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), has selected five new projects to receive a total of $3.5 million for ocean coexistence and transmission.
