Summary
In March 2025, a bunch of solar, wind, and energy storage companies officially got a special status called Exempt Wholesale Generator. This means they can sell electricity wholesale without some usual rules, helping them operate more smoothly and possibly save money. If you’re involved with these companies, this change is already in effect and could speed up their energy projects.

Solar, wind, storage firms gain EWG status

This status lets those companies sell electricity at wholesale without some of the Commission's usual requirements, which may help them operate more smoothly and could reduce costs or speed up their projects.
