Panel discussion with Melissa Winne of ISO New England, Rick Conant of RLC Engineering, Patrick Scully of the Maine Public Utilities Commission (PUC), and Heather Sanborn of the Office of the Public Advocate, moderated by Jeff Thaler of Preti Flaherty. The program examines the benefits of upgrading transmission to support the development of more renewables, including the Northern Maine Renewable Energy Development Program and the PUC's estimate of about $400 million of net benefits to Maine ratepayers after connecting onshore wind in Aroostook County to a 1,200 MW transmission line. It also addresses questions raised in E2Tech's previous GRIDsilience panel discussions about ISO New England's Longer-Term Transmission Planning (LTTP) RFP.
