First-quarter electricity prices in CAISO markets were down sharply from the same period in 2023, despite sharp spikes during the January cold snap in the Pacific Northwest, the ISO’s Department of Market Monitoring said.
FERC acted on rehearing requests for Order 1977, finalizing the rules it will follow under limited backstop siting authority for transmission lines.
FERC continues to fiddle with the return on equity MISO transmission owners can earn, this time setting the base amount at 9.98% while once again eradicating the risk premium model from the calculation.
ISO-NE is not planning to pursue the development of simultaneously clearing seasonal capacity auctions as part of its capacity auction reform project.
Although it’s largely compliant with the directives of FERC’s Order 1920 on regional transmission planning, MISO intends to seek a yearlong extension of the June 2025 compliance deadline.
SPP stakeholders have endorsed what one member called an “historic” transmission plan that will eclipse any previous portfolio by a factor of five with a projected cost of $7.65 billion.
The Supreme Court turned down industry and state efforts to slap a stay on the EPA's new rules aimed at cutting carbon emissions at U.S. power plants burning fossil fuels.
