NYISO expects it will be able to operate reliably, according to the Winter 2024 Operating Study.

NYISO released the first draft of its 2024 Reliability Needs Assessment showing a capacity deficiency in New York City beginning in 2033 and proposing to declare a reliability need for its zone.

NYISO proposed to increase the Rate Schedule 1 carryover to $5 million, while the Installed Capacity Working Group discussed different ways to incentivize transmission security via the markets.

NYISO made significant updates to its assumptions as part of its final Reliability Needs Assessment, which now shows no concern of a capacity deficiency and a loss-of-load expectation of less than 0.1 in 2034.

NYISO’s Market Monitoring Unit, Potomac Economics, presented recommendations for addressing what it calls inefficient market outcomes caused by setting locational capacity requirements based on the transmission security limit.

NYISO presented its final interim staff recommendations for the demand curve reset for 2025-2029 at the Installed Capacity Working Group’s meeting, with minor updates to some metrics.

NYISO's update to its draft Reliability Needs Assessment still shows an expected capacity shortfall by 2034, though it is slightly less than what was initially presented in July.

NYISO's final 2025 project budget recommendation re-added several items, such as the storage as transmission project, that will be presented to the Management Committee later this year.

NYISO proposed shortening the activation notice period for special-case resources from 21 hours to four, which caused consternation among program participants at the Installed Capacity Working Group’s meeting.

The Analysis Group told NYISO stakeholders it did not recommend any major changes to the annual process for updating the ISO’s gross cost of new entry for generators.
