Southwest Power Pool (SPP)
RTOs and ISOs will take part in 15 research and development projects awarded almost $38 million in funding by the Energy Department.
SPP and MISO are negotiating a set of “guiding principles” to improve the M2M process and reduce congestion costs along their seams.
The MISO Market Subcommittee discussed daylight saving time, demand response and the Monitor's latest report.
FERC said MISO's current schedule doesn’t allow gas-fired generators enough time to procure fuel.
The SPP board also approved a 2-cent cut in its administrative fee and discussed its proposed response to the Clean Power Plan.
MISO and SPP concluded their first joint study process, saying the exercise was a valuable learning experience even though it failed to produce a single interregional project.
SPP's Clean Power Plan task force wrapped up its work, while the RTO set yet another record in wind generation.
SPP had proposed seams transmission projects as a new category to fill a gap in its transmission planning.
FERC approved SPP’s request to correct and resettle $13.1 million of transmission-service invoices dating back to 2009.
Thanks to some of the nation’s largest wind resources, ERCOT, MISO and SPP have all set new wind generation records this fall.
