Entergy's Obstruction of Long-Range Transmission Planning Contributes to New Orleans Blackout Crisis A recent blackout in New Orleans on May 25th highlights a systemic issue within Entergy's grid management, which prioritizes profit over customer needs and relies on obstructionist tactics to stifle long-range transmission planning (LRTP), a crucial component of grid reliability. Despite billions of dollars invested in transmission infrastructure, Entergy's projects have not undergone the rigorous LRTP process, resulting in potential costs for consumers that do not outweigh benefits, whereas alternative projects demonstrate a 2-to-1 net benefit for them through a collaborative stakeholder process.
