The NEPOOL Markets Committee approved ISO-NE’s proposed compliance filing to implement FERC Order 2222.

FERC granted ISO-NE an extension on its Order 2222 compliance deadline, giving the RTO until Feb. 2, 2022.

FERC approved requests by MISO, SPP and PJM to delay their Order 2222 compliance filings by up to nine months.

FERC reversed its ruling giving state regulators power to prevent demand response from participating in DER aggregations.

FERC’s directive to open wholesale markets to aggregations of DERs is forcing states to consider more holistic system planning.

MISO members say the grid operator needs both hard work and new faces to comply with FERC’s distributed energy directive, Order 2222.

CAISO, ISO-NE and NYISO look to be the pacesetters in opening the country’s organized electricity markets to greater participation by DERs.

FERC is asking the RTOs for information on aggregated DER portfolios in their wholesale markets, the first significant movement in over a year.

Advanced Energy Economy members are eager for FERC to issue a final rule breaking down barriers to participation in wholesale markets for DERs.

MISO CEO John Bear opened GCPA’s MISO South Regional Conference with the RTO’s strategic initiatives and the five “500-year” storms it has experienced.
