NEMA comments on national interest electric transmission bottlenecks.(National Electrical Manufacturers Association)
ROSSLYN, VA -- In a September 13th, 2004, response to a Federal Register notice, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), submitted comments to the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Electric Transmission & Distribution, calling for DOE leadership in resolving transmission bottlenecks.
According to NEMA, growth in demand for electricity and the increase in regional electricity trade have taxed transmission lines nationwide. Meanwhile, investment in new transmission facilities has significantly declined over the past 25 years. This contradiction has led to bottlenecks, which are economically inefficient and threaten the safe and reliable operation of the transmission system. NEMA contends that, while it is in favor of identifying and eliminating bottlenecks, it is concerned that a lengthy process is under consideration. The association urges the secretary of energy to "exercise leadership in the resolution of transmission bottlenecks," as he did in two cases in California and New York.
Although the reduction of some transmission bottlenecks would require the construction of new transmission corridors, NEMA ...
