MISO’s plan to create external resource zones in its annual capacity auction isn’t detailed enough on several fronts, FERC told the RTO.

SPP and AECI stakeholders approved a scope for a joint study to determine the existence of any mutually beneficial transmission projects.

SPP has scheduled an executive session of its board and Members Committee to discuss admitting Mountain West Transmission Group members.

After almost three years of deliberation, MISO is putting the final touches on a plan to create external resource zones for its annual capacity auction by 2019.

The SPP board approved a Tariff revision that incorporates a refund obligation for the RTO's nonpublic transmission-owning utility members.

SPP’s Markets and Operations Policy Committee unanimously approved adding a major maintenance cost in mitigated start-up and no-load offers.

SPP’s market-to-market (M2M) process with MISO again resulted in a large payment to SPP for November operations.

SPP set several new records for wind generation, lending further credence to its claims that it can handle wind-penetration levels as high as 75%.

SPP stakeholders narrowly rejected a Tariff change that would have established a 1-MW threshold for reporting behind-the-meter network load.

FERC rejected SPP’s proposed cost allocation for its seams project with Associated Electric Cooperative Inc.
