The Regional System Plan (RSP) is a comprehensive planning report on system needs and the resource and transmission facilities needed to maintain the reliability of New England’s power system over a 10-year horizon, while also accounting for market efficiencies and economic and environmental considerations. Developing an RSP at least once every three years is one of the ISO’s responsibilities as Regional Transmission Organization (RTO). To learn more, see Attachment K: Regional System Planning Process of the Open Access Transmission Tariff (Section II of the ISO Tariff).

快播视频 maintains two informational lists related to transmission infrastructure projects: the Regional System Plan (RSP) Project List and the Asset Condition List.
The RSP Project List includes relevant design and cost information for a variety of transmission projects initiated through the regional system planning process overseen by 快播视频.
The Asset Condition List includes cost and other information on upgrades to or replacements of existing transmission facilities identified by facility owners to address asset degradation. While ISO-NE tracks these projects, it does not determine the need for any asset condition project or select transmission solutions to address asset condition needs.
See the RSP Project Lists and Asset Condition List Updates.

The ISO develops the RSP in collaboration with the Planning Advisory Committee (PAC), and ongoing data and analyses are posted on the PAC webpage throughout the year as they become available. For your convenience, you can also view system studies and associated materials grouped as follows:
See descriptions of these types of transmission upgrades.
See Competitive Transmission for information and materials associated with the 快播视频’s request for proposals process for finding competitive solutions to identified transmission needs.
