What was being voted on

119-HR-1047 — GRID Power Act

This Act directs the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to reform how energy projects connect to the electric grid. It requires a rulemaking process to address current inefficiencies in processing interconnection requests. The goal is to allow new dispatchable power projects that improve reliability and resource adequacy to connect to the grid more quickly and cost-effectively. Under this law, transmission providers could propose adjusting the interconnection queue to prioritize certain dispatchable power projects.
