MISO is hesitant to grant a request from Michigan to give dispensations to distributed energy resources from its mandated affected studies that gauge transmission system impacts.

The use of distributed energy resources can reduce grid costs, delay system upgrades, authors contend.

FERC directed ISO-NE to submit an additional filing to specify its metering and telemetry practices for distributed energy resource aggregations.

MISO hopes it can use a two-step approach to Order 2222 compliance, first using a demand response category in 2026, with full market participation of aggregations of distributed resources still on the RTO’s original 2030 timeline that FERC refused last year.

FERC accepted an Order 2222 compliance filing by ISO-NE while requiring the RTO to make an additional filing to detail deadlines for distributed energy resource aggregators to submit metering data.

MISO members pondered at Board Week over how quickly the full impact of Order 2222 will be felt across the footprint.

SPP’s latest attempt to comply with FERC Order 2222 has resulted in the commission’s partial acceptance and a directive to make another compliance filing.

Speakers at the ISO-NE Consumer Liaison Group meeting stressed the importance of proactive efforts to unlock the potential of demand response and peak shifting.

NYISO defended its proposal to set a 10-kW minimum requirement for distributed energy resources to participate in an aggregation.
