Useless Without Transmission: DOE Backs $581 Million TVA Grid Expansion
On the same day we asked how much of the grid's bill is really AI's, the Department of Energy offered a partial answer.
@TVAnews and @ENERGY are supporting readily-available, affordable energy that powers Tennessee and the nation. @POTUS is lowering costs for over 2 million families and businesses while bringing new innovation and employment to the Volunteer State to the tune of 800 jobs.
— Senator Bill Hagerty (@SenatorHagerty) October 13, 2026

Nation's Largest Power Grid Declares Emergency As Hot Temps Collide With Maintenance Shutdowns
A short-lived heat blast across the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic overlaps with scheduled power plant shutdowns for seasonal maintenance on PJM Interconnection's grid, which serves 67 million people from the Mid-Atlantic to Chicago. PJM was forced to declare a low-level emergency for Tuesday and Wednesday as 60 gigawatts of capacity remained offline.
Bloomberg reports that the squeeze sent spot power prices skyrocketing across PJM's Western hub to $1,021 per megawatt-hour Tuesday afternoon, more than double the day-ahead average for that hour. Day-ahead prices for Wednesday jumped 28% to $295.83 per megawatt-hour, the highest daily average since mid-July.

President Donald Trump said at an Oct. 12 rally in Youngstown, Ohio, that the departments of Energy and Commerce will help keep SOBE Thermal Energy Systems, a troubled downtown steam utility, running as cold weather approaches.
