Smartgrid Roundup
On August 15, 2024 in Docket No. 24-E-0364 (Proactive Planning for Upgraded Electric Grid Infrastructure), the PSC issued an Order directing the Joint Utilities, to develop two filings.
The first filing should propose a framework for a process to proactively plan for EV and building electrification, define methods for evaluation and cost allocation of infrastructure projects, and describe the process by which this new planning framework may be integrated within other planning processes. The second filing will propose urgent projects that may require deployment before the completion of the overall planning process. Press Release available here.
NYSEG/RGE reports that it has installed over 700,000 smart meters upstate, and has committed to installing over 1.3 million meters over the next two years. Some customers are reporting higher bills after receiving the smart meters.
