ACORE Urges FERC to Prioritize Transmission Solutions to Address Resource Adequacy Challenges

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) issued the following statement from ACORE President and CEO Ray Long ahead of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC’s) Commissioner-led Technical Conference Regarding the Challenge of Resource Adequacy in RTO and ISO Regions:

“ACORE is encouraged by FERC’s efforts in convening this week’s technical conference on resource adequacy, an incredibly important topic given worsening weather events and explosive demand growth. We need a grid that’s resilient to the weather. And we need a grid that can enable the U.S. to win the AI race against China.

We urge the Commission and participating panelists to take a holistic view of meeting reliability needs, which requires fully valuing each generation type and acknowledging the important role of transmission and cost-effective technologies that maximize the existing system. Grid-enhancing technologies and high-performance conductors offer near-term capacity expansion options to help ensure resource adequacy, while new regional and interregional powerlines are planned and built to ensure reliable, affordable power for decades to come.”

FERC will host the two-day technical conference June 4-5 at FERC’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. The event is open to the public to attend in person or virtually.

Are There Any Trump Voters Who Regret Their Choices?

Published

For those who struggle with elementary school arithmetic, Trump won the election (50%+ approval) out of more than 150 million votes cast, and now his approval rating is in the low 30s.

That’s ~30 million voters who regret their choices, out of the common American.

Add in the Tucker Carlsons of the world.

Absolutely.

It must be done, because our country is home to some hateful morons who want to see honest, hardworking, taxpaying people with brown skin deported, and their families torn apart.

It wasn’t the American way until recently, but it sure is now.
