The CAISO decision to possibly prioritize reforms to its congestion revenue rights auctions in 2017 has provoked mixed reactions from stakeholders.

WAPA has selected a route for the TransWest Express transmission project, an HVDC line proposed by Anschutz Corp.

Solar photovoltaic resources can provide ancillary services in a way comparable to conventional generating resources, according to a study released by CAISO.

FERC said evidence of price reporting deficiencies by power sellers during the Western Energy Crisis cannot constitute the sole basis for a finding of market manipulation.

WAPA and SMUD said the Colusa-Sutter project will provide additional bidirectional transmission capacity to improve SMUD’s ability to participate in CAISO’s Energy Imbalance Market (EIM).

California will require improved transmission access to renewable resources to meet its environmental targets, according to a new report from the Energy Commission.

FERC approved a new definition of a “load-serving entity” in CAISO that includes those that purchase wholesale electricity to serve their own needs.

CAISO rang in 2016 with a strong push to expand its EIM into PacifiCorp’s sprawling service territory, but the project hit a stumbling block by mid-year.

CAISO has kicked off an initiative to explore how it can procure resources equipped to automatically respond to disturbances in grid frequency.

The CAISO Board of Governors approved the membership of GridLiance after their purchase of the Valley Electric Association’s 230-kV transmission network.
