This bill directs the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to create new rules making it faster and easier for power plants and energy storage systems to connect to the electric grid. The commission has 180 days to begin the rulemaking process and 18 months to complete final regulations that would require transmission companies to use better modeling practices, share cost-effective solutions with applicants, adopt modern technologies to speed up reviews, and provide greater transparency throughout the interconnection process. The legislation affects power companies, energy storage facilities, and renewable energy developers seeking to connect new generation resources to the transmission system. The bill does not create any new funding mechanisms but emphasizes cost-effective solutions and does not change how transmission costs are allocated among ratepayers.
