  2. The #CAISO has released its #TransmissionPlan covering the next decade.

    "The transmission projects identified in this plan over the next 10 years are driven primarily by increased load growth including building and transportation electrification, manufacturing, and large loads including data centers, and the state’s projection that the grid will need an additional 107 gigawatts of installed capacity by 2040."

  3. Today there were a couple of interesting filings at the #CPUC that seek to open up the currently capped level of retail electric competition for larger customers, known as #DirectAccess. This is happening because of the significant new load growth due to #DataCenters, #EVCharging and #Electrification. Because the CPUC has ordered LSEs to procure more capacity for these future loads, there's a potential cost shift if #ESPs are not permitted to serve the new loads due to the the cap. It will be interesting to see whether the hostility against #DA continues or not. #CAEnergy #Energy
