Building new regional and interregional transmission lines and upgrading existing lines are vital steps toward meeting U.S. energy needs and lowering prices for consumers. Great to hear Secretary of Energy nominee Chris Wright share this sentiment during his confirmation hearing last week ⤵️

Regional & interregional transmission is critical to ensuring affordable, reliable power. Energy Sec. nominee Chris Wright on grid improvements: "In the energy world, the most pressing problem we have is our electricity grid...we need to get serious about building infrastructure and investment."

Sec. of Energy nominee Chris Wright to Sen. Martin Heinrich: "I'm aligned with you and will seek to find the best ways to improve our transmission grid, including expansion and new lines." The U.S. must build regional and interregional lines while deploying GETs and HPCs to meet growing demand.
