SPP’s Board of Directors approved a tariff change that creates a one-time study outside the grid operator’s normal planning process over the concerns on independent power producers.
CalCAA
The cost of electricity in California could be reduced if energy providers were allowed to trade power by the hour, a new study by the California Community Choice Association says.
ERCOT
ERCOT has unveiled a long-term load forecast for 2031 that adjusts projections provided by transmission providers and accounts for the uncertain nature of data centers and other large users.
SPP
A study of SPP’s future energy and resource needs has found the grid operator will have to rely on thermal generation to maintain grid reliability into midcentury, but it will come at a cost.
SPP
SPP’s Board of Directors has approved a one-time process to quickly add generation so load-responsible entities can meet their resource adequacy needs under the grid operator’s planning reserve margin requirements.
