The California Independent System Operator (CAISO) has approved the 2023-2024 Transmission Plan that identifies and plans for key upgrades to California’s transmission system to deliver power from offshore wind turbines to the state’s homes and businesses.
CAISO unveiled its draft 2023-2024 Transmission Plan last month which identifies a need to invest in 26 transmission infrastructure projects in California, including several projects on the state’s North Coast that will upgrade grid capacity to integrate power from offshore wind projects off the coast of Humboldt into the California grid.
