Thanks to some of the nation’s largest wind resources, ERCOT, MISO and SPP have all set new wind generation records this fall.

ERCOT released its final winter assessment, indicating it has more than sufficient generation to meet an anticipated peak demand of 57,400 MW.

The mission of RTO Insider is to provide an accurate account of the stakeholder debates to help those outside the room monitor issues that matter to them.

ERCOT released an updated analysis of the Clean Power Plan’s impacts on the Texas grid’s reliability, saying the rule could result in the retirement of at least 4,000 MW of coal-fired generation.

Lubbock Power & Light’s recent announcement it was planning to take 400 MW of SPP load and join ERCOT hung heavy over the Strategic Planning Committee last week.

SPP staff will urge the MOPC to recommend approval of just one of three interregional projects coming out of the coordinated system plan study.

The Integrated System expands SPP's footprint to 14 states, adding the Dakotas and parts of Iowa, Minnesota, Montana and Wyoming.

Bradley C. Jones will take over as CEO of NYISO on Oct. 12, as the New York power market faces a proposed overhaul led by the state’s governor and utility regulators.

NYISO announced Wednesday that its Board of Directors has selected Bradley C. Jones, senior vice president and COO of ERCOT, to replace Stephen G. Whitley as president and CEO, effective Oct. 12.

ERCOT's seasonal assessments of resource adequacy for the fall and winter predict enough generation available to serve forecasted peaks.
