2025-2044 Outlook Explores Pathways to a Reliable, Cleaner Grid
Source: NYISO · Aug 07, 2026NYISO’s August 7, 2026 “2025-2044 Outlook Explores Pathways to a Reliable, Cleaner Grid” says New York demand is expected to rise over the next two decades, driven by “electrification policies and the emergence of new large loads,” and that “Transmission capability increasingly determines whether new resources can serve load.” NYISO also says the grid will need more transfer capability, including to “Increase transfer capability across the Central East transmission interface” and “Support zero-emissions generation development in Northern New York with bulk transmission upgrades to enable energy deliverability from this region.”

Forecasts for Reliability Planning Studies
Source: NYISO · May 29, 2025NYISO’s May 29, 2025 “Forecasts for Reliability Planning Studies” says large loads are a meaningful component of future New York demand, with “Projected Large Load impacts from existing and future interconnection of Large Loads” included in the light-load forecast and “Large loads are assumed to contribute over 2,000 MW to the Light Load by 2035.” NYISO also says these reliability studies incorporate EV charging, building electrification, and BTM storage charging into future load shapes.

October 2022 Update of Load Forecasting Manual: Large Load Interconnection Reporting and Forecasting
Source: NYISO · Oct 21, 2022NYISO’s October 21, 2022 Load Forecasting Manual update says large-load interconnections can materially change district forecasts: “Changes in the timing of the construction and ramp-up period of Large Load Facilities that are Interconnecting on the system have the potential to significantly alter the load forecast within a Transmission District” (NYISO). It also adds new reporting rules, requiring that “Large Load Facility forecast reports shall include the project status and forecasted load impacts” and that, after an SIS, the Connecting and Affected TOs submit reports quarterly or when forecasts change. NYISO further says “The sum of projected load changes reported for Large Load Facilities will be added to each TOs forecasted peak value as applicable.”

Large Load Facility Discussion: Data Submission Requirements and Forecasting Method
Source: NYISO · Aug 26, 2022NYISO’s Aug. 26, 2022 Load Forecasting Task Force presentation proposes changes to how large loads are counted in peak forecasting: the definition of Large Load Facilities would be expanded for ICAP forecasting to include 40 MW or more below 115 kV in a Large Transmission District and 20 MW or more below 115 kV in a Small Transmission District, while the current interconnection threshold remains “Greater than 10 MW” at 115 kV or above or “80 MW or more” below 115 kV. NYISO also says “The sum of the forecasted large loads will be computed for each Transmission District and added to its ICAP Market Forecast” and that “The Transmission District Regional Load Growth Factor (RLGF) will not be applied to load changes from the Large Load Facilities.”

Flexible Load Models – Large Loads
Source: NYISO · Feb 24, 2026NYISO says it is developing policy and market-design changes for flexible large loads in New York, including “DER Modeling Improvements” and “Dynamic/Adaptable Participation Opportunities for Large Flexible Loads,” with a 2026 milestone of “Market Design Concept Proposed” and possible “Tariff revisions” next year (NYISO, Feb. 24, 2026). NYISO also says large-load growth is outpacing supply in New York and that interconnecting large loads without adequate new supply “contributes significantly to reliability risk,” while ISOs/RTOs are exploring faster interconnection approaches such as non-firm transmission service, co-location of load and generation, and DER participation options.

Google taps Whiting-Turner to build $600M Oregon data center
Google has selected Whiting-Turner Contracting Co. to build a $600 million data center in Wasco County, Oregon. The 290,000-square foot facility will expand Google’s existing data center presence in the area. The decision was based on the region’s energy infrastructure, available land, and workforce. Google has invested over $1.8 billion in Oregon since 2006. Other tech companies like Meta Platforms, EdgeCore Digital Infrastructure, and Amazon are also investing in data center developments across the country.
