EEI Offers Comments on FERC Large Load Interconnection ANOPR
September 2025
Last month, the U.S. Department of Energy directed the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to consider an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANOPR) on the interconnection of large loads to the transmission system. EEI offered FERC constructive comments that provide a path forward to bring large loads onto the transmission system quickly while protecting everyday Americans from unfair cost shifts and building the reliable grid we need to win the AI race. EEI’s comments were covered by Politico.
