MISO Resource Adequacy Subcommittee (RASC)
MISO’s plan to crop some load-modifying resources’ capacity credits remains unpopular with stakeholders, prompting the RTO to postpone the accreditation.
MISO is contemplating creating a seasonal design for its resource adequacy construct to manage potential reliability risks outside of the summer months.
MISO is offering stakeholders a compromise on one of two proposals it will file with FERC, removing a provision that would eliminate capacity credits for slow-response LMRs.
MISO is preparing to make two resource adequacy filings with FERC aimed at making its capacity resources more readily available.
A report from MISO concludes stakeholders will need to quickly adjust the RTO’s capacity construct to accommodate a resource mix dominated by renewables.
MISO will seek FERC approval for a proposal to tighten LMR accreditation standards for capacity auctions as stakeholders complain the plan is restrictive.
MISO is wrapping up implementation of approved outage rules designed to dissuade capacity resources from taking long outages that could risk supply.
Early data for MISO’s spring capacity auction shows a 1-GW uptick in the capacity supply needs but essentially no change in year-over-year peak forecasts.
MISO says it may reduce the capacity accreditation of some of its load-modifying resources in an effort to improve resource availability in its footprint.
MISO says it will look to make improvements to the capacity testing process after sifting through results from its generators and discovering errors.
