Lanny Nickell discusses the benefits of SPP's 2024 Integrated Transmission Plan at our Spring Meeting:

"Let's talk about this number - $88-$95 billion of reduced APC, that's a 8-9 benefit to cost range. For every $1 invested, $8-9 of value. That's a good deal."

A succinct take from our Executive Director on the new administration's focus on advancing a more robust & reliable grid.

"The clear message from (Trump) is that it's time to really put a heavier foot on the gas pedal & get things moving, said Larry Gasteiger."
