DOE Transmission Interconnection Roadmap: Transforming Bulk Transmission Interconnection by 2035

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released a new roadmap that sets aggressive success targets for interconnection improvement by 2030 and outlines tools that will improve the process for connecting more clean energy projects to a reliable grid, while helping achieve the Biden-Harris Administration’s goal of 100% clean electricity by 2035.  

The Transmission Interconnection Roadmap, developed by DOE’s Interconnection Innovation e-Xchange (i2X), identifies and organizes nearer- and longer-term solutions to enable transmission interconnection processes to meet expected demand and is intended for a diverse audience of stakeholders participating within transmission interconnection processes.

Download the roadmap to learn more about solutions to speed up the interconnection of clean energy onto the nation’s transmission grid and clear the existing backlog of solar, wind, and battery projects seeking to be built.
