This document provides an overview of the 2017 Economic Study conducted by Webre and Wells, focusing on transmission upgrades and their implications for energy planning. It includes the analysis of three major transmission upgrades, supported by data from RDI and POWERdat, and fuel price forecasts from the EIA. The study utilizes advanced modeling techniques to analyze the economic operation of power systems while identifying congestion areas and durations. Key outcomes and recommendations for future actions are summarized, promoting efficient energy distribution and planning.
