Extend power transmission program to 2031

This bill would extend the Transmission Facilitation Program by replacing the authorization window "2022 through 2026" with "2026 through 2031." If enacted, the change would take effect on enactment. The bill would not change funding levels, eligibility rules, or how the program works. Transmission developers, utilities, and grid operators would be able to use the program through 2031, and households might see indirect effects later, such as more transmission or changes in electric rates.
