The Electricity Customer Alliance (ECA), in partnership with Americans for a Clean Energy Grid (ACEG) and Grid Strategies, released “Federal Transmission Pricing Volume 2: Options for Ensuring Affordability and Reliability in an Era of High Load Growth,” a new white paper examining policy options to ensure transmission costs are allocated fairly as electricity demand grows from data centers, advanced manufacturing, and other large customers.

The white paper evaluates a range of transmission pricing, cost allocation, planning, and cost recovery reforms that could help maintain affordability and reliability while ensuring all customers pay their fair share of the costs associated with expanding the electric grid.
