Despite Texas PUC Commissioner Will McAdams' forceful opposition, SPP approved a measure granting local projects an opportunity for regional funding.

The Texas PUC expressed concern that ERCOT is not moving quickly enough to implement the many changes to the market directed by the state legislature.

ERCOT and Texas regulators and politicians say the grid is ready for severe winter weather this time, but some stakeholders aren't so sure.

Texas regulators on Thursday pushed ahead with a market re-design strawman, issuing directives to ERCOT to work with PUC staff in implementing the changes.

ERCOT says it has received all but one winter readiness report from system generating resources as part of the state’s new winter readiness requirements.

Texas PUC Chair Peter Lake said "the lights will stay on" this winter, based on the commission's new weatherization rules and market changes.

Texas regulators have settled on a two-phase blueprint to redesign the ERCOT market and have given stakeholders until Friday to comment on their proposals.

The Texas Public Utility Commission has announced former Dynegy CEO Bob Flexon and John Swainson as the two latest additions to ERCOT’s Board of Directors.

Texas regulators have reached consensus on lowering ERCOT's high systemwide offer cap to $5,000/MWh from $9,000/MWh, a 44% reduction.

The Texas PUC continued to explore load-serving entity resource obligations as a way to improve resource adequacy in the ERCOT markets.
