  • Abstract
    New generation capacity is not keeping up with load growth. Heavier interconnections are of little value if the needed capacity does not exist. The reports on the Great Northeast Blackout urged the industry to build more ties, reduce the component failure rate and the frequency of outages, and make plants so that they could be restarted without bringing in outside power.
