DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Technical Conference; Design 

Concepts of Future Electric 

Transmission 

AGENCY: Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of Technical Conference. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy’s 

Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy 

Reliability (OE) will conduct a technical 

conference in the Washington, DC area 

to discuss the design of future electric 

transmission. The technical conference 

will discuss the likely demand for 

future electric transmission and whether 

the development of conceptual 

alternative extra high voltage (EHV) 

systems would assist generation 

developers, State energy policy officials, 

utility planners, and other stakeholders. 

The specific agenda, list of panelists, 

and meeting location will be posted on 

the OE Web site at http:// 

www.oe.energy.gov as they become 

available. 

DATES: The technical conference will be 

held on March 4, 2009. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John 

Schnagl, Director Transmission 

Adequacy, Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability, phone (202) 

586–1056, or e-mail 

john.schnagl@hq.doe.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A robust 

and reliable electricity system is vital to 

our national economy, security, and 

well-being. Numerous proposals have 

been made to modernize the electric 

transmission systems. Included among 

these proposals is the construction of an 

EHV transmission system to augment 

the existing transmission systems. OE 

believes it is important to begin a 

thorough review of whether an EHV 

system should be considered by States 

and regional planning entities. To that 

end, OE is seeking a broader discussion 

on the ranges of opinion regarding the 

future requirements of the electric 

transmission system, and what actions 

should be considered now to help 

ensure that the appropriate transmission 

system is available to meet those future 

needs. 

This technical conference is part of 

OE’s ongoing evaluation of electric 

transmission adequacy and is not part of 

the 2009 National Electric Transmission 

Congestion Study required by the 

Energy Policy Act of 2005. 

The technical conference will pursue 

two primary areas of interest: 

Identification of the fundamental issues 

to be considered in designing future 

transmission; and exploration of the 

pros and cons of building an EHV 

network, in terms of energy and 

economic efficiency, reliability, access 

to renewable generation, and reduction 

of carbon emissions. These areas will be 

addressed during three panel discussion 

sessions. 

Panel I will address projections of 

future transmission needs and factors 

that should be considered to help 

ensure that an appropriate transmission 

system is available to meet future needs, 

including anticipated contributions 

from Smart Grid, storage, and 

distributive generation. Panel II 

discussions will address whether there 

are advantages to an EHV design over 

the traditional transmission planning 

process, what the pros and cons of a 

supplemental EHV system might be, and 

what the relationship between the 

existing transmission system and an 

EHV system would be. Several entities 

have proposed conceptual EHV designs. 

Panel III will address the primary 

objectives in each design, the criteria 

that should be considered in selecting 

any particular design, whether an EHV 

system could be built in stages with 

broad public benefits realized with each 

stage, and the amount of an EHV system 

that must be completed before the 

public could see major benefits.

2009.
