American Clean Power Association Statement on FERC Transmission Incentives

WASHINGTON DC, April 15, 2021 – The American Clean Power Association (ACP)  issued the following statement on today’s Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) actions on transmission.

“ACP commends FERC for its continued inquiry into incentivizing needed transmission, especially the focus on Grid-Enhancing Technologies that can help dramatically expand capacity on existing lines. This is a step in the right direction of getting public policies in place that will help build the grid that is needed to meet the Administration’s clean energy and climate goals. However, other key transmission reforms are sorely needed from FERC, such as planning and cost allocation to enable the development of the grid of the future, and we look forward to working with FERC on those.” – Gene Grace, ACP General Counsel
