PJM Interconnection

PJM Interconnection, the largest power grid operator in the United States, has unveiled a plan requiring new large power users to either bring their own new generation to the grid or limit their usage when the system is stretched. This aligns with the Trump administration's goals of addressing grid strain and rising electricity costs.

PJM Interconnection is reviewing a proposal from the Donald Trump administration that would require tech companies to pay for new power plants through specialized contracts to ease price increases in its regional grid.

PJM Interconnection, the nation's largest power grid, is experiencing surging power costs due to data center demand, and the Trump administration has pressed it to hold an emergency auction for long-term electricity supplies.
