Our work

The Clean Energy Transmission Working Group’s report recommended that the state Legislature consider granting additional statutory authority with regard to co-location, noting that “this aligns with federal guidance on leveraging alternative uses of highway rights-of-way.” NextGen Highways is working to help legislators and policymakers implement the needed changes to grant this authority, with the eventual goal of working with utilities, transmission developers, state agencies, and other stakeholders to ensure that interstate and other highway corridors receive due consideration for transmission siting.
