Midwest Grid Operator Beats Its Own Record, but the Work Is Not Done Yet

US-based Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) approved the largest transmission investment in U.S. history, with a package serving MISO North states. The plan will deliver up to $101 billion in benefits and allow 100 GW of new clean energy to connect to the grid. The investment includes three portfolios, with Tranche 2.1 expanding the grid for increased demand and supporting clean energy shifts.
