HR 7624 United States House · 118th Congress

Advancing GETs Act of 2024

HR 7624, the Advancing GETs Act of 2024, creates a financial incentive for entities installing grid-enhancing technologies (GETs) on electric transmission systems. It requires the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to establish a "shared savings" program by July 2025, returning 10-25% of verified cost savings (minimum 4x the investment cost) to developers over three years for new GET installations that improve grid capacity, efficiency, or resilience. The bill also mandates annual congestion cost reporting from transmission operators and directs the Energy Secretary to create a public application guide for utilities, funded with $5 million in 2024 and $1 million annually through 2035. This directly affects developers of transmission infrastructure and utilities seeking to implement GETs, focusing on tangible financial mechanisms rather than speculative outcomes.
