State regulators and the PJM Board of Managers publicly buried the hatchet over the RTO's contract with Monitoring Analytics. But some tensions remain.

The PJM Board of Managers last week approved $1.2 billion in transmission reliability projects.

PJM proposed a $276 million operating budget for 2014, a $1 million reduction.

PJM plans $30 million in capital budget spending next year, a $2 million reduction from 2013, under a preliminary budget that will be presented to the Board of Managers for approval.

PJM yesterday began inviting competitive proposals for transmission projects to provide relief at its 25 most congested locations.

PJM announced that the Board of Managers approved a new contract with Monitoring Analytics, PJM’s independent market monitor. The contract runs through 2019.

Today's PJM Liaison Committee meeting with the Board of Managers is at 4pm EDT in Chicago. It's open only to members and regulators. No public. No press.

Public interest groups scolded PJM for excluding them from the MOPR stakeholder process and for setting its annual meeting at the Greenbrier. The public interest groups and state regulators also praised PJM for its handling of generation retirements and lobbied it to increase use of demand response and energy efficiency.
