Good morning.
Meta expanded its Richland Parish, Louisiana campus to 5 gigawatts with a $50 billion capital commitment. That is the largest single-site load event in MISO history, and it resets assumptions about transmission headroom, capacity pricing, and queue positioning across MISO South.
That is exactly the kind of story The Morning Read was built to cover.
Each issue covers the developments that matter across PJM, MISO, ERCOT, CAISO, and SPP, organized by market. Every story includes The Read — a practitioner's take on why it matters for interconnection, power procurement, or site origination. One click to expand, easy to skip if you're moving fast.
Today's issue also covers Texas's new ride-through rules shifting compliance cost onto data center operators, Nashville freezing permits while zoning catches up, and a Pennsylvania developer who filed two days before a moratorium vote to lock in the current ordinance.
