Pylon Pile-On Holds Up Critical Transmission Lines

Good discussion of the permitting barriers facing critical new transmission lines.
We will not meet climate goals without new transmission, and keeping the lights on in the face of deteriorating and aging infrastructure, in an age of more extreme climate events, will be impossible if NIMBYs on both sides of the political fence give some ground.
I’m especially upset by the short sightedness of purported “green” groups who are unwilling to understand the bigger picture.
We’ve seen some giant leaps in permitting reform around the midwest, related to solar, wind, and battery siting. We need to make similar progress for transmission.
