Transmission planning has changed dramatically since the 1990s. What was once a reliability-focused, long-term process must now manage faster timelines, expanding renewable portfolios and emerging high-demand loads such as data centers. Traditional planning assumptions no longer hold, and economic considerations—how power is delivered, congestion managed and system value captured—are central to every decision.

This webinar will explore how today’s planners approach these challenges, including evaluating the economic impact of transmission projects, analyzing historical and forecast data, and addressing congestion from both generation and load growth. Attendees will gain insight into the strategies and tools used to make informed, economically-driven planning decisions in a rapidly evolving grid environment. Attendees will learn:

• Why traditional long-term transmission planning assumptions no longer hold in today’s grid.
• Why economic considerations now drive transmission planning decisions.
• Key factors in selecting software to support efficient, economically informed planning.
