PJM presented the Planning Committee with issues it sees with its current process for evaluating market efficiency projects.

PJM members are questioning a request by the Ohio Valley Electric Corp. to join as a new transmission zone, but the issue is not up for debate, the RTO said.

SPP’s Regional State Committee will later this month begin taking a lead role in the integration of the Mountain West Transmission Group.

MISO and PJM have responded to a FERC deficiency letter with a defense and clarification of their proposal to impose stricter rules on pseudo-ties.

PJM will meet to address stakeholder concerns over how the integration of the Ohio Valley Electric Corp. into the RTO would affect existing members.

SPP and Mountain West Transmission Group representatives worked hard to allay concerns of Colorado regulators who fear they could lose some authority.

FERC again ordered SPP to rewrite its rules on auction revenue rights (ARRs) and long-term congestion rights (LTCRs).

SPP began the public portion of integrating the Mountain West Transmission Group with a pair of lively stakeholder meetings in Colorado and Arkansas.

PJM’s plan for addressing uplift remains on schedule, and the final two phases of its three-phase solution will be filed by the end of this week.

Stakeholders approved PJM’s 2017 installed reserve margin (IRM) calculations at last week’s Planning Committee meeting.
