Representatives contend that MISO should increase stakeholder representation on the committee that selects candidates for its Board of Directors.

A new MISO Board Qualification Task Team is seeking stakeholder suggestions to improve the process for choosing the RTO’s board members.

MISO will attempt to divide its ongoing market platform replacement into a series of smaller agreements with vendors rather than one large contract.
