Summary

A non-binding House resolution stating the House's position that retiring non-intermittent electric generation facilities before replacements with equal or greater reliability attributes are available poses a risk to the reliability of the U.S. electric grid. Its preamble cites the North American Electric Reliability Corporation's 2024 Long-Term Reliability Assessment, which the resolution says identified several transmission regions at elevated or high risk of electricity shortages.
