FERC is considering changes to its Electric Quarterly Report rules, including requiring data on ancillary services transactions and changes to how financially settled trades are reported.

The MISO forward capacity auction proposal and the broader issue of resource adequacy were the “hot topic” at last week’s Advisory Committee discussion.

Monitor David Patton said that although MISO markets and operations performed well over a warmer-than-usual summer, there is room for improvement.

Gavin Donohue, IPPNY CEO, opened their fall meeting by declaring that its top priority is to have NYISO reset the installed capacity demand curve.

A forward capacity market may have worked for PJM and ISO-NE, but it isn’t the solution for NYISO, the Market Monitor told IPPNY’s fall conference.

The increased adoption of distributed energy resources occupied center stage during the second day of CAISO’s annual Stakeholder Symposium.

Plaintiffs asked a federal appellate court to force FERC to rule on the legality of the ISO-NE eighth Forward Capacity Auction.

Wisconsin’s large manufacturers are asking state regulators to grant them retail choice, warning that high power prices may otherwise cripple the state’s economic growth.

MISO officials said last week they are still finalizing their forward auction proposal for competitive areas, but the changes won’t be significant and won’t affect a late fall FERC filing.

The PJM Independent Market Monitor gave his blessing to the RTO’s Capacity Auction for delivery year 2019/20 but called for additional Capacity Performance rule changes.
