UNCERTAINTIES !
"New England’s electric power grid is undergoing rapid change. Uncertainties related to the pace and scale of reductions in carbon emissions, growth in electricity demand, and increases in renewable resources and battery storage are just some of the variables that pose challenges now and into the future."

Is ISO-NE saying NESCOE holds all the responsibility and final decision for the $2.2 billion dollar upgrade that ISO-NE solicited bids for?
"NESCOE’s request is aimed at upgrading the transmission system between northern Maine, where land-based wind generation is expected to increase, and the more populous regions of southern New England, where demand for electricity is highest. The ISO completed its…

With nothing new on the generator horizon to provide the power needs of data centers, ISO-NE is not feeling good about data center loads. Batteries are basically the only resources being offered through ISO-NE's long term generation outlook portal and noting that batteries are not new generation, in fact, batteries are an impediment to existing generation, ISO-NE had to address this rapidly developing situation and provide FERC (Federal Energy…

BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) dominates the request for connections to the New England grid according to ISO-NE data sheets.
What this means is hardly very little new generation is being offered. Batteries do not generate power. They suck power from the grid and return this power at 80% efficiency back to the grid, usually at peak hour prices.…

When Central Maine Power collects money to pay Net Energy Billing-Solar Project Owners, they calculate the amount based on Maine State Policies that includes delivery charges paid to project owners. None of these projects deserve getting money for delivery. They are generators using CMP's distribution system to get rich off other people's money. …

Sometimes, ISO-NE decisions indicate a severe case of schizophrenia. Why would they propose a $2.2 billion dollar transmission line upgrade to allow a wind project to enter the New England Network when the wind project is not even in the ISO-NE territory. Shouldn't this project be delivering its energy to the Northern Maine Independent System Administered Network?

With nothing but solar, wind and batteries offering new generation in the ISO-NE network, the people in charge of overseeing adequate electricity supply in New England have decided to ignore the loads that data centers will add to demand by saying they will have to bring their own power plants.See Below:
What they do not address is how AI proposals to businesses will drive up the need to increase the electricity consumption to increase business productivity.…

The New England Grid System Operations (ISO-NE) has a new CEO. As ISO-NE approaches it's 4th decade of promising to keep the lights on, he appears apprehensive about how all the new power will be generated, because if generation of electricity doesn't happen, all the wires and poles in the world aren't keeping the lights on.
