MISO laid out a more detailed proposal for how it will determine the capacity accreditation of energy storage resources under FERC Order 841.

MISO, commited to moving forward, said it plans to refile a plan to create external capacity resource zones with FERC by the end of the month.

MISO outlined the range of stakeholder feedback it has received since revealing its straw proposal for energy storage resources in June.

At last week's MISO Resource Adequacy Subcommittee meeting, staff reviewed how capacity import limits can bind in the RTO's annual capacity auction.

MISO’s Market Monitor floated a plan that would allow resources that are unavailable for the full planning year to offer into the RTO’s capacity auction.

A recent MISO study slightly overestimated actual capacity offers in the 2018/19 Planning Resource Auction.

MISO is switching gears on a previous proposal to discontinue its practice of forecasting long-term capacity import and export limits.

After almost three years of deliberation, MISO is putting the final touches on a plan to create external resource zones for its annual capacity auction by 2019.

The MISO Resource Adequacy Subcommittee will devote time this year to several projects focused on improving the RTO’s resource adequacy construct.

Preliminary estimates show that MISO’s capacity requirements and available supply for the 2018/19 capacity auction will be in line with last year’s figures.
