Entergy wants to use power it creates. That led to the May blackout.

Instead, Entergy has a history of using its transmission system to prevent competition and maximize profits from its fleet of gas plants. The DOJ determined that Entergy had been operating its transmission system so that owners of low-cost gas power plants couldn’t access Entergy’s service territory. That creates an extremely limited North/South interconnection that’s often referred to as a bottleneck, because it only allows an extremely limited ability of power to flow between MISO North and MISO South. Entergy never sold its transmission assets to become part of the regional MISO electricity flow. During the time since Entergy joined MISO, the first wave of LRTP projects in MISO North has been entirely completed.
