If You Build It, Will They Come? A North American Perspective on Electrical Transmission Line Siting
October 21, 2011
As demand for energy continues to grow—especially electricity generated from renewable sources—so, too, does the need to efficiently move energy across state lines and boost the ability to move resources across international borders. But state, national and international interests often do not align. This lack of a cohesive plan is leading to underdeveloped markets and an overstressed transmission system. This session explored effective tools used in Canada and Mexico, as well as potential domestic policy solutions, all designed to more efficiently move power from where it is generated to where it is needed.
Presented by : Rep. Jeff Morris, Washington Legislature, CEO of Energy Horizon.
