SUMMARY:MID-GRID Webinar – Intertie Optimization
DESCRIPTION:Intertie Optimization is the process of efficiently utilizing any interregional transmission capability between neighboring RTOs/ISOs that remains unused after all bilateral trades have been arranged.The presentation will focus on a recent study performed by the Brattle Group and Willkie\, Farr & Gallagher LLP titled: The Need for Intertie Optimization – Reducing Customer Costs\, Improving Grid Resilience\, and Encouraging Interregional Transmission. A copy of the report can be found online here. \nSpeakers: \n\nHannes Pfeifenberger\, The Brattle Group\nNorman Bay\, Willkie\, Farr & Gallagher LLP\n\n\n\nWatch Recording

SUMMARY:MGA MID-GRID 2035 – Advanced Conductor Webinar
DESCRIPTION:David Townley\, Director of Public Policy at CTC Global will present on their work with advanced conductors. CTC Global is a pioneering manufacturer of advanced transmission conductors. CTC’s innovative design enables more power to flow through existing transmission corridors\, delivering more efficient and reliable energy to customers than conventional wires do today. MGA participants will have the opportunity to discuss the benefits of advanced conductors\, barriers to their broad implementation\, and opportunities for states and utilities to explore their use in the Midwest. \n\nWatch Recording

SUMMARY:Generation Fleet Change Pathways and Cost Implications
DESCRIPTION:MID-GRID 2035 participants will join a discussion of technological and regulatory approaches for maximizing benefits of transmission development for landowners and local communities. Discussion could include opportunities for conducting outreach to engage stakeholders upstream in the process—early and often—especially with groups that have often not been adequately represented in past decisions\, including rural residents\, communities of color\, and sovereign Tribal Nations. Participants will also discuss opportunities for unlocking co-benefits via transmission infrastructure deployment and how transmission planning and siting process can be structured to minimize conflict and broadly support beneficial outcomes for all stakeholders. \n\nWatch Recording
