This grant, offered under the Recovery Act by the Department of Energy, is specifically designed to bolster the analytical and planning capabilities crucial for electricity transmission across the three major interconnections in the contiguous United States: the Western, Eastern, and Texas Interconnections. The core objective is to facilitate the development or enhancement of expertise required to prepare comprehensive analyses of transmission requirements. This involves evaluating power grid needs under a broad range of alternative future scenarios and subsequently developing robust, long-term, interconnection-wide transmission expansion plans. This vital initiative aims to ensure the stability, efficiency, and future readiness of the nation’s electrical infrastructure, promoting coordinated planning for sustainable energy security.
