MISO recommended that Entergy’s request for a $187 million transmission upgrade near Lake Charles, La., be sent for consideration by the RTO’s board.

Despite a drop in Q4 earnings, Entergy executives gave an upbeat outlook, citing stronger-than-expected growth in retail sales and forecasts of increasing industrial demand.

PSE&G accused PJM of breaking its own rules in refereeing the competition for the Artificial Island stability fix, suggesting the RTO should start all over.

MISO transmission developers cried foul over a $187 million transmission upgrade proposed by Entergy, saying the company's request denies them a chance to compete for the project.

FERC found that PJM partially complied with its second Order 1000 compliance order and conditionally approved MISO's third-round compliance filings.

PJM and its Transmission Owners filed a response to address what FERC deemed deficiencies in their plan to integrate multi-driver projects into the RTEP.

FERC is starting the process of arbitrating interregional Order 1000 compliance filings, beginning last week with PJM and MISO.

NC WARN asked FERC to force Duke and other utilities in the Southeast to form a RTO to share power reserves, rather than keep building new plants and boosting prices to pay for them.
