AI Summary

PJM is proposing a second effort to create a pathway that would use surplus interconnection capacity at existing power facilities to bring new generation online. The earlier reform attempt produced limited results, and PJM’s surplus interconnection process has yielded few outcomes compared with MISO and SPP, which are each studying roughly 15 GW and 14 GW of projects, primarily battery storage.
