Nuclear Energy Institute CEO Maria Korsnick expressed support for FirstEnergy’s request that the Department of Energy declare an emergency in PJM.

PJM told Market Implementation Committee meeting attendees that it plans to salvage some of its proposal to revise its regulation market that FERC rejected.

PJM stakeholders are questioning the process for how a transmission development proposal will proceed following a debate at last week’s Planning Committee meeting.

Energy Secretary Rick Perry indicated he was not likely to declare an emergency to keep FirstEnergy Solutions’ (FES) struggling power plants operating.

FirstEnergy Solutions filed for bankruptcy Saturday, two days after asking Energy Secretary Rick Perry to issue an emergency order directing PJM to compensate coal-fired and nuclear power plants.
