The governors of Pennsylvania and Virginia have requested that PJM consider former FERC Commissioners Mark Christie and Allison Clements to fill two vacant seats on the RTO’s Board of Managers.

To increase its energy supplies, PJM proposes expanding its process for allowing new resources to inject onto the grid while their required network upgrades are being completed, allowing a unit to operate partially.

The PJM Board of Managers initiated a Critical Issue Fast Path process aimed at maintaining resource adequacy in the face of rising data center load growth, asking stakeholders to draft proposals to serve 32 GW of load growth expected by 2030.

New Jersey faces tough decisions on how to balance the risk of blackouts against the cost of reducing their frequency as the state confronts the unprecedented future energy demand surge facing the region.

FERC Chair Mark Christie, a vocal critic of high transmission costs and transmission incentives “candy” that impact every consumer in the nation, has only a couple of weeks to act to reduce consumer costs, says Paul Cicio.

The Public Service Enterprise Group is waiting for New Jersey to address the region’s predicted energy shortage as the utility continues to see a dramatic rise in potential demand from data centers.

Exelon's CEO said on an earnings call that the company remains interested in the possibility of utility-owned generation.

American Electric Power and Xcel Energy say clean energy projects are still a part of their plans, despite the hurdles placed in front of them by the federal government’s budget reconciliation bill.

The Department of Energy issued an emergency order to lift annual run-hour restrictions on the H.A. Wagner Generating Station Unit 4 located outside of Baltimore to address a shortage of generation in PJM.

Everyone knows we need more electricity, and it’s painfully clear PJM is not capable of responding to increased demand, say energy consultants Brad Viator and Alison Williams.
