“While the move toward a Western regional grid stalled in the California legislature this fall, the discussion is not over.
Regionalization was a topic of discussion at the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) annual symposium earlier this month in Sacramento.
Bills to enable CAISO expansion were pushed back to the very end of the legislative session, due to a large amount of legislative time spent on extending cap and trade, according to CAISO Board of Governors member David Olsen.”
