Parts of the U.S. face “elevated or high risk of energy shortfalls” this summer, according to NERC’s upcoming Summer Reliability Assessment.

The Northeast Power Coordinating Council’s Regional Standards Committee approved a guidance document on integrating DERs on the bulk power system.

NPCC predicted adequate resources to meet the needs of customers this summer, despite drops in capacity and a rise in expected demand since 2021.

Extreme weather events have brought “extraordinary clarity” about reliability risks posed by climate change, NERC CEO Jim Robb told an EPSA conference.

Utilities cannot recover prior costs of complying with NERC's critical infrastructure protection standards in ISO-NE, the D.C. Circuit Court said.

FERC’s Republican minority is arguing that the commission’s recent decision on the Weymouth Compressor Station is leading to uncertainty for gas developers.

An ISO-NE study warned that DERs with older inverters that don't allow them to ride through faults could trip during high solar output and low demand.

Severe weather and rapidly diversifying generation will challenge electric reliability in the next decade, NERC said in its Long-Term Reliability Assessment.

Independent power producers warned that policymakers are risking reliability by attempting to transition too quickly from gas and coal to renewables.

Limited fuel supplies put the New England grid at heightened risk of emergency actions — including controlled outages — this winter, ISO-NE said.
