Record-breaking cold brought multiple appeals for conservation from utilities in the northern portions of MISO's footprint.

NERC has recommended a $10M fine on a utility for violations of critical infrastructure protection reliability standards over more than three years.

NYISO last month incorporated additional 115-kV transmission facilities in its energy market model, COO Rick Gonzales told the Management Committee.

A dangerous cold snap spurred a maximum generation event and knocked out power to MISO’s Carmel, Ind., offices on Wednesday.

An SPP group has been unable to reach a consensus on possible revisions to cost-allocation rules for wind-rich areas and may table their year-long review.

SPP stakeholders approved changes to the RTO’s generator interconnection process to simplify what had become a burdensome process involving repetitive data.

CAISO said it had finalized agreements to provide reliability coordinator services with 32 transmission operators and balancing authorities in the West.

SPP will this year begin providing reliability coordinator services to more than a dozen entities in the Western Interconnection.
