Congratulations to James Danly on being sworn in as Deputy Secretary of @ENERGY. I was honored to attend the ceremony, and @wiresgroup looks forward to working with him and his team on building transmission infrastructure needed to meet the nation’s energy dominance goals.

A @ferc decision that wrongly (and naively) empowers an entity with no transmission planning or engineering expertise to make building much needed energy infrastructure harder, costlier, and take longer to the detriment of consumers during a declared National Energy Emergency.
Chairman Christie’s Concurrence to Order Denying MISO’s Petition for Declaratory Order re the IMM’s Role ferc.gov/news-events/ne… With transmission costs driving ever increasing monthly power bills, we should applaud market monitors with the courage to do their jobs.
Congratulations to @LaCerteDA on being nominated to @FERC!
WIRES congratulates @LaCerteDA on his nomination to be a Member of the @FERC. #grid #gridreliability #transmission
Today we honor the dedicated lineworkers who keep the grid strong & power flowing. They are an essential force supporting our energy system & we’re grateful for their work reinforcing the grid, restoring outages & showing up no matter the weather. #thankalineworker #transmission
