Bill overview
The GRID Power Act directs the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to revise the process for connecting new power plants to the electricity grid. Specifically, it aims to prioritize ‘dispatchable power’ projects – like some fossil fuel plants – that can reliably supply electricity and improve grid stability. The Commission must create new rules to streamline the interconnection process, allowing transmission providers to propose prioritizing projects that enhance grid reliability and resilience, and must review and approve or deny these proposals within 60 days. The act also mandates periodic updates to these regulations to ensure they remain effective.
