State regulatory staff and MISO executives found no easy answers to solve a burgeoning reliability crisis after converging for a resource adequacy summit.

MISO's board may be coming around to the idea of using a sloped demand curve to price capacity as the RTO confronts the possibility of resource shortages.

A month after its capacity auction revealed a Midwestern supply scarcity, MISO’s Independent Market Monitor and a MISO vice president debated the path forward.

The OMS and the Independent Market Monitor resuscitated a longstanding debate over whether the RTO should adopt a sloped demand curve in its capacity auctions.

Oregon should recognize the capacity contributions of all resources including variable renewables, according to a report commissioned by the state PUC.

Vistra said MISO’s “irreparably dysfunctional” capacity auction design deserves blame for its decision to shutter the last of its Midwest coal plants.

MISO’s Steering Committee routed eight new market improvement proposals to stakeholders for debate and prioritization by voting.

The MISO Market Monitor is seeking to use the RTO’s recent refiling of its resource adequacy construct to force a FERC ruling on changing its capacity demand curve.

MISO notified stakeholders of the decision by letter, explaining that it was influenced by improved planning efforts in the states and FERC's current limbo.

Consultants on either side of MISO’s rejected capacity auction redesign faced off in a debate at the Gulf Coast Power Association's conference.
