Bill overview
The SPEED and Reliability Act of 2024 aims to streamline the process for building large, high-voltage power lines – designated as ‘national interest high-impact transmission facilities’ – across the United States. It allows the Secretary of Energy to designate these facilities and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to issue permits for their construction or modification. The bill establishes a clear process for identifying these critical transmission projects, including requirements for geographic scope, capacity, and reliability, while also seeking to reduce the environmental review process for these projects.
