Upcoming WGA Webinar will explore strategies for improving energy interconnection

Increased electricity demand, rapid energy development, and an aging and inadequate transmission system continue to strain the grid, creating significant interconnection challenges that limit the ability to bring new energy online quickly and restrict opportunities for optimizing or diversifying the grid. Energy project developers often encounter long queues and lengthy delays in securing interconnection agreements, which may be further stalled by high costs and complex permitting requirements. 

As part of Utah Governor Spencer Cox's WGA Chair initiative, Energy Superabundance: Unlocking Prosperity in the West, this webinar will explore how improving the interconnection process can reduce queue backlogs, lower development risk, and accelerate the deployment of new energy resources.

The webinar will take place from noon to 1 p.m. MDT on Friday, June 8

Once it's done, a recording will be uploaded to WGA's YouTube channel
