SPP’s plan to develop a market to compete with CAISO's Western EIM got a boost from utilities and energy customers in the Pacific Northwest.

SPP has filed a request with FERC that the commission take immediate action in a dispute between the RTO and AECI over charges from the February 2021 storm.

The Western EIM took on BPA and Tucson Electric Power as new participants, marking the market’s largest single expansion since its founding.

SPP’s Board of Directors approved the RTO’s fourth competitive transmission project, awarding a $55 million, 345-kV facility to NextEra Energy Transmission.

The PJM MRC endorsed creating a new senior task force to study a potential market construct for procuring clean resource attributes in the RTO’s markets.

CAISO issued a straw proposal for its extended day-ahead offering in the Western Energy Imbalance Market, a renewed effort at greater Western regionalization.

MISO warned that even a normal amount of demand and generation outages will likely send it into emergency procedures this summer.

CAISO's Western Energy Imbalance Market surpassed $2 billion in total member benefits only 20 months after hitting the $1 billion mark in 2020.

The RE+ Texas conference drew hundreds of renewable energy experts to the state that leads in wind production and may soon lead in solar energy too.

FERC ordered six more entities to refund the premiums they earned from sales into CAISO during the severe heat wave of August 2020.
