With energy demand rising, costs going up, and grid constraints mounting, states are facing critical infrastructure decisions. While RTOs (Regional Transmission Organizations) and ISOs (Independent System Operators) manage electricity systems at scale in many regions of the country, states remain the key drivers of how our grid grows—through legislation, regulatory oversight, and leadership.
This website supports state decision-makers, staff, and advocates who want to:
-
Understand the complexities of the regional transmission system
-
Identify opportunities for state engagement in regional and federal energy decisions
-
Champion policies that improve reliability, affordability, and low cost energy access
