Streamlines the permitting process for electric transmission facilities in the national interest.
The SPEED and Reliability Act of 2025 amends the Federal Power Act to streamline the permitting process for electric transmission facilities. It requires the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to consider landowner input and ensure that facilities are used for interstate or foreign commerce, consistent with the public interest, and capable of transmitting energy at appropriate voltages. The bill also mandates that tariffs for these facilities be just and reasonable, allocating costs based on benefits such as improved reliability and reduced congestion.
