MISO and the Tennessee Valley Authority are poised to strike an agreement on emergency energy transactions after months of RTO leadership complaining that TVA doesn’t return the favor of energy transfers in times of need.

Stakeholders appear wary of MISO’s proposed, availability-based accreditation it plans to file with FERC by the end of the year for the RTO’s approximately 12 GW of load-modifying resources.

ERCOT stakeholders have endorsed changes to the grid operator's ancillary services methodology as part of the annual process to determine the minimum amount of products that will be procured in 2025.

Three independent SPP board members providing oversight of the RTO’s Markets+ development in the West have called for policy- and decision-makers to allow the process to “follow its natural course.”

FERC has accepted SPP tariff revisions that allow make-whole payments for incremental energy costs affected by incremental energy offer caps under Order 831, regardless of the resource's reason for commitment.

MISO said it managed a milder summer overall compared to previous years, though it weathered two hurricanes and escalated into emergency warnings during a heat wave.
