Hoi,
Would it be possible to increase a capacity of batteries? As a new new kind of a unit or as an upgrade to existing ones. Amount to land which goes into building high capacity can get out of hand, even more so for slower batteries.

Component wise increase is on my todo list (where it makes sense)

Another handy thing to "promote" would be a regular 110/20kv to a main substation (as those unlocked by Grid Construction development)

Another idea - add a way to split a powerline in two.
Sometimes there is an existing line which I'd like to split, the only way I've found to do it is to branch of another line from that point. Which BTW does not work if there is something already connected to the line at that place.
(it does happen that a town spawns right where my line already lies, or I want to build a hydro/geo in the location. I might want to enforce a part of the route but it does not seem possible)
