PJM Interconnection has approved more than 50 GW of new solar, wind, and battery projects to connect to its grid, potentially lowering energy costs if state governments, utilities, and developers can overcome challenges in grid upgrades, permitting, and financing.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
You must target the handful of projects with interconnection rights in PJM now, as those are the only generators likely to be operational before 2030. Utilities and state regulators are the gatekeepers to delivery, so engaging them urgently to push grid upgrades and permits is your clearest route to market and revenue.
