A summary of FERC orders approved at its open meeting last week related to MISO.

FERC denied requests by Texas and Louisiana regulators for rehearing of its December 2013 order approving the Entergy operating companies’ incorporation into MISO.

Entergy said Monday it will close the 838-MW James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant by early 2017 due to declining revenues and high operational costs.

Entergy is expected to announce this week whether it will keep operating the James A. FitzPatrick nuclear plant near Syracuse.

The developers of the Northern Pass transmission line have filed for siting approval from New Hampshire with a higher price tag, a slightly altered route and another adjustment in the amount of hydropower the project can carry from Canada.

As it has in years past, FERC said Entergy had not proven its proposed rates were just and reasonable.

FERC rejected two complaints alleging that MISO overcharged for through-and-out transmission on the MISO South system.

Entergy announced Tuesday it will close its Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in Plymouth, Mass., no later than June 1, 2019, marking the company’s exit from the New England market.

Entergy has agreed to sell a Rhode Island natural gas-fired power plant to The Carlyle Group for $490 million, a 40% mark-up in less than four years.

The New York PSC asked NYISO to perform reliability studies in western New York after NRG Energy announced it was retiring one coal plant and suspending plans to convert another to natural gas.
