ATC projects a 6% decrease in 2027 transmission network rates

American Transmission Company says its projected 2027 network rate is about 6% below the 2026 rate if FERC approves pending filings on costs for large new electric loads.

Rate projection

ATC posted its projected 2027 transmission revenue requirement on October 2. The projected network rate is approximately 6% lower than the 2026 rate, conditional on FERC approval of pending filings related to large new loads.

Large-load charges

ATC said it expects to bill $136 million related to large-load data-center projects in 2026. Its proposal would base transmission charges for large users on requested capacity and the service they receive.
