What MISO does
MISO operates the grid from the upper Midwest down to the Gulf Coast. It runs energy markets, plans transmission across its region, and manages the interconnection queue for new generators. It is regulated by FERC and works with the states in its footprint.
MISO and Texas
A part of East Texas is in MISO, not in ERCOT. A site there follows MISO and local utility rules, and ERCOT queue and price data do not apply to it. For Texas sites outside ERCOT, Voltane shows ERCOT queue figures as unknown.
Questions people ask
Is MISO a utility?
No. Like other grid operators, MISO runs the grid and the markets but does not own the lines or sell power to homes.
Can Voltane find me a site in MISO?
Not today. Find me a site covers ERCOT in Texas. Analyze my site, by request for now, takes a site you already have in the contiguous United States.
