▸ THE ONE-LINER
FERC moved quietly this week, but the authorization to transmit electric energy to a foreign country lands at a moment when cross-border grid capacity has become a genuine constraint on both renewable buildout and industrial load growth. The order clears the path for transmission operators to move power across the border legally, and the companies positioned along that corridor now have regulatory cover they didn't have before. Meanwhile, EPA finalized updates to hazardous chemical inventory reporting requirements under EPCRA, aligning the rules with the 2024 OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, which means facilities that haven't updated their chemical classification systems are now on the clock.
The Department of Energy has received an application seeking authorization to transmit electric energy across a U.S. border to a foreign country. No specific company or transmission volume has been identified in the filing.
