Americans for a Clean Energy Grid recently released its new report, Disconnected: The Need for a New Generator Interconnection Policy. The report shows the current system for interconnecting generators to the transmission grid is unworkable and inefficient, creating a backlog of unbuilt energy projects. These lengthy interconnection queues have resulted in increased electricity costs for consumers, delayed rural economic development and job creation, and an added difficulty for clean energy projects looking to be connected to the nation's grid.
