ACORE's Macro Grid Initiative seeks to expand and upgrade the nation's transmission network to deliver job growth and economic development, a cleaner environment, and lower costs for consumers. Through a transmission Macro Grid, we can connect centers of high renewable resources with centers of high electric demand, enhance grid resiliency and dramatically reduce carbon emissions.ACORE and its partners advocate for a fully planned and integrated national transmission system, promote a new FERC transmission planning rule, and enlist state leaders to advance the next round of regional and interregional transmission planning.
