FERC ordered two new NERC reliability standards in response to the February 2021 winter storm that nearly led to the collapse of the Texas Interconnection.

FERC approved NERC's proposed cold weather reliability standards in an order that recognized more standards would likely be necessary in the future.

MISO is preparing for emergency conditions this winter despite projecting 40 GW of excess capacity to meet the forecasted peak in January.

Most RTOs say they are ready for winter but the possibility of fuel shortages during an extended cold spell is keeping ISO-NE officials up at night.

January’s cold weather resulted in a sharp increase in natural gas and power prices in the first quarter, PJM’s Independent Market Monitor reported.

As they have in the past four years, the trends in natural gas dominated the discussion of FERC’s annual State of the Markets report.

A seasonal post-mortem at this month's MISO Board Week provided stakeholders with insight into the RTO’s market performance recently, in the near future and the long term.

More than 100 people gathered at the ISO-NE Consumer Liaison Group to discuss the rapid changes overtaking New England’s electricity market.

ISO-NE is racing to relieve natural gas pipelines constraints and interconnect new resources, CEO Gordon van Welie said.

PJM that its generation fleet performed much better in this New Year’s January cold snap than during the 2014 polar vortex.
