ISO-NE presented its proposal for a two-tiered capacity auction that would incorporate state-mandated renewable generation at the FERC technical conference.

More than 50 stakeholders from PJM, NYISO and ISO-NE made their cases to FERC on how to resolve conflicts between energy policies and wholesale markets.

Whether energy efficiency should be allowed in the capacity market drew heated debate on two issues at the PJM Market Implementation Committee meeting.

NYISO told FERC it is considering a carbon adder as a means to link the state’s zero-emission credits (ZECs) to its wholesale electric market.

The minimum offer price rule (MOPR) was a controversial topic at last week’s FERC technical conference.

The PJM Operating Committee discussed the coming heavy outage season and the RTO's BAA control error limit, which remains lower than usual.

NRG Energy posted sharp losses in the first quarter on lower hedge margins and declining capacity revenues in the eastern U.S.

EIM transfers out of CAISO were on the upswing in March, re-establishing a pattern first seen last spring with California’s growing solar surpluses.

SPP named Keith Collins, CAISO manager of monitoring and reporting and former FERC official, as the new executive director of its Market Monitoring Unit.

CAISO is developing a plan for an Aug. 21 solar eclipse that will sharply reduce the state's solar power for three hours on a Monday morning in summer.
