Amint az adósságplafonról szóló tárgyalások folytatódnak, a megújuló energiával foglalkozó csoportok sürgetik a Kongresszust, hogy fogadja el a kétpárti átvitelt engedélyező jogszabályokat – CleanTechnica

WASHINGTON, D.C. — With permitting reform discussions occurring in Congress this week and debt ceiling negotiations continuing, leading national renewable energy organizations sent a levél to House and Senate leadership urging the enactment of bipartisan transmission permitting legislation that builds on the transformational clean energy policies included in the Inflation Reduction Act.

“Research shows that we will need to double the pace of historical transmission deployment in order to maximize the carbon emission reduction benefits of this historic legislation,” the groups explain in the letter. “These reforms are essential to realization of the 21st century átviteli hálózat America needs to bolster economic competitiveness, ensure grid reliability in the face of increasingly frequent severe weather, and achieve the clean energy transition necessary to address the climate crisis.”

The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE), Advanced Energy United (United), and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) recommend reforms to the Federal Power Act that:

1. Enhance the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) siting authority over critical interstate transmission lines;
2. Codify fair cost allocation language that allows transmission developers to recoup the costs of interregional lines from those who benefit, and allow for related petitioning to FERC;
3. Improve interregional planning processes to better reflect the multiple benefits of an interconnected grid; and
4. Direct FERC to implement an interregional transfer capability requirement to ensure that adjacent transmission planning regions are able to transfer electricity during times of stress on the grid.

The renewable energy organizations also urge Congress to consider policies that modernize National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) reviews while maintaining bedrock környezetvédelem. These include reforms that:

• Prioritize upfront and meaningful stakeholder consultation, particularly with underserved communities
• Provide reasonable timelines for Environmental Impact Statements and Environmental Assessments
• Mandate designation of a lead agency to be responsible for a single environmental document
• Establish a reasonable statute of limitations for judicial review
• Provide sufficient resourcing for permitting agencies

Any negotiated framework that addresses environmental reviews must also include requisite transmission siting and permitting reform, the groups added, noting opposition to any effort to decouple these two important topics.
