Capacity imports could clear at lower prices than internal resources under proposed import limits being considered by PJM.

PJM should be able to absorb the more than 7,000 MW of capacity imports that cleared in May’s auction for 2016-17, officials said.

Six years after RPM’s inception,FERC convened a technical conference last week to ask the question: How’s the capacity market working for you?

PJM will seek to set a limit on capacity imports before next year's Base Reliability Auction under a problem statement approved by the Planning Committee.
