FERC said it needs more explanation behind MISO’s plan to use a capacity accreditation that would accredit resources based on a combination of their projected availability and historical performance during periods of high system risk.

A new report from NERC and the National Academy of Engineering explored the shortcomings of traditional resource adequacy metrics and alternatives under development.

FERC found SPP’s tariff revisions laying out how it determines its planning reserve margin methodology only partly met the commission’s order on rehearing and directed an additional compliance filing.

ISO-NE outlined its current thinking on a potential Regional Energy Shortfall Threshold at the NEPOOL Reliability Committee.

Three years after a deadly winter storm nearly imploded the ERCOT grid, stakeholders in the Texas market are working on a reliability standard that may be stricter than industry norms.

ISO-NE presented the NEPOOL Markets Committee with additional results of the impact analysis for the RTO’s resource capacity accreditation project, which looked at how changes to the resource mix would affect the seasonal distribution of shortfall risks.

SPP’s Resource and Energy Leadership Team marked the one-year anniversary of its formation with yet another discussion of resource adequacy issues and the various metrics used to determine a reliability standard.

SPP REAL Team members conducted a “therapy session” in forming a consensus position around its schedule and priorities for 2024.
