H.R. 6633

High-Capacity Grid Act

Energy and Commerce Committee · Rep. Julie Fedorchak (R-ND)

14 September 2026  |  Reported by committee (Energy and Commerce, as amended, H. Rept. 119-824)

What's next: Floor scheduling (leadership decides if and when it gets a vote)

Summary: The bill would require electric utilities to use the most advanced, high-capacity power line conductors available for new interstate transmission projects or upgrades to existing ones. It aims to make it easier for utilities to recover the costs of these superior conductors through consumer electric bills by directing federal regulators to presume that using the best-available conductor is a prudent, reasonable practice, while using lesser conductors would not be.
