Maura Healey is focusing on climate in the race to replace Charlie Baker as Massachusetts governor.

The 2050 transmission study, Cape Cod curtailments and planning for geomagnetic disturbances were all on the agenda at the ISO-NE PAC meeting.

FERC and NERC continue to gather information from utilities, generators and grid operators on maintaining electric reliability during severe cold weather.

ISO-NE is developing a process for allowing energy storage projects to be used as transmission assets.

Massachusetts broke from NESCOE's stance on the elimination of ISO-NE's MOPR, saying the rule should be disposed of as soon as possible, without any delay.

FERC ordered CAISO, ISO-NE, MISO, NYISO, PJM and SPP to report on how system needs are changing with their shifting resource mixes and how they will meet them.

Rising natural gas prices and extreme weather pushed wholesale electricity prices higher in 2021, FERC said in its annual State of the Markets report.

ISO-NE's Order 2222 compliance filing has been criticized by environmental groups and renewable advocates who say it fails to meet the goals laid out by FERC.

Rhode Island’s climate council hosted a listening session on the electric sector to help inform a GHG emissions reduction plan update due in December.

Sen. Ed Markey has set his sights on ISO-NE, accusing the grid operator of being part of an "oil and gas conspiracy."
