In anticipation of the hearing in the US Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee to “Examine the Opportunities, Risks, and Challenges Associated with Growth in Demand for Electric Power in the United States,” ACP CEO Jason Grumet has sent the attached letter to Chairman Manchin (D-WV) and Ranking Member Barrasso (R-WY) which will be for the record.
The letter urges the Committee to redouble their efforts to develop a comprehensive permitting reform package that will address reliability challenges and help to meet our future energy needs. Further, the letter notes that while FERC Order No. 1920 is an important step to addressing regional transmission planning needs it does not address the impediments to interregional transmission permitting and planning which will be vital if we are going to meet the growing demand for power.
