Restarting previously closed nuclear plants could be one of the most cost-effective ways to supply large amounts of firm, clean electricity, writes Patrick White at Clean Air Task Force.

By 2042, DTE expects to have more than 2.9 GW of energy storage on its system, more than doubling its current storage capacity.

New coal-fired plants in Anchorage, Alaska, and Mt. Storm, West Virginia, would total 2.85 GW. They would be the first new U.S. coal plants to come online since 2013.

In markets where supply and demand are out of balance, grid connection increasingly comes with a choice: either bring the needed power yourself, or bring flexibility, write experts at ICF.

The region should have adequate resources to meet typical electricity demand, but some areas may need to implement emergency procedures or rely on imports during grid stress.

If we want farmland to stay farmland, we have to be open-minded about what farming looks like today, writes Abby Broedlin, vice president of asset management at Nautilus Solar Energy.

The U.S. Department of Energy on Friday said the order to keep the last coal plant in Washington state online is needed to help meet peak summer demand.

Three reports published Monday lay out recommendations for development of an offshore transmission system, and highlight the potential for high voltage direct current technology.

The Champlain-Hudson line is expected to meet up to 20% of New York City’s electricity needs, bringing clean energy from Montreal to the Astoria Energy Complex in Queens.

The first projects to navigate the process will be called “Batch Zero." The Electric Reliability Council of Texas says its large-load queue is almost 90% data centers.
