BPA should have enough generation to avoid capacity deficits if it decides to join the “binding” phase of the Western Resource Adequacy Program.

ERCOT's spring seasonal assessment of resource adequacy shows it has sufficient installed generating capacity to serve peak demand this spring.

MISO said it intends to sunset its longstanding stakeholder group dedicated to the grid operator’s loss-of-load expectation calculations.

ERCOT broke its silence on social media when it tweeted the release of its semiannual report that provides a 10-year forecast of its planning reserve margins.

The CPUC and CAISO instituted new resource adequacy requirements and conservation programs in preparation for the coming summer.

MISO reiterated the extraordinary nature of mid-February’s winter storm, promising more data later this month and resource adequacy solutions by year-end.

SPP stakeholders once again took a crack to resolve a weighty issue in determining how futures will be considered in the RTO’s 2021 transmission plan study.

MISO’s Monitor said the RTO would be better served by an even higher planning reserve margin, two days after it recorded its first emergency of the summer.

MISO will evaluate the merits of defining new seasonal reliability criteria and implementing a sub-annual capacity construct, stakeholders learned.

Early data for MISO’s spring capacity auction shows a 1-GW uptick in the capacity supply needs but essentially no change in year-over-year peak forecasts.
