The language for the proposed bill to implement “Step 2” of the West-Wide Governance Pathways Initiative stipulates the conditions under which CAISO and California utilities can participate in energy markets governed by an independent regional organization.

ERCOT wants to use CenterPoint Energy's leased mobile generators to temporarily resolve reliability issues in the San Antonio area.

California state lawmakers introduced a much-anticipated bill to implement “Step 2” of the West-Wide Governance Pathways Initiative, marking a significant step toward the creation of a new independent “regional organization” to oversee governance of CAISO’s markets.

FERC denied LS Power’s two petitions for recovery of costs in case the development of a 285-mile transmission line is abandoned, saying the developer failed to adequately show the project’s benefits.

Two energy companies have withdrawn projects from the Texas Energy Fund, citing equipment procurement constraints that will keep them from meeting a December 2025 deadline.

FERC approved a suite of changes to PJM's next couple of capacity auctions, which are meant to mitigate billing impacts as the supply-demand dynamic in the region tightens and longer-term reforms are pursued.

To build a reliable, affordable and clean electric power system, the U.S. energy industry and customers will need to shift their thinking about what a reliable system looks like, according to a study from nonprofit think tank Energy Innovation Policy & Technology.

The deadline to submit bills for California’s 2025 session is looming, and backers of the West-Wide Governance Pathways Initiative expect legislation without unnecessary fluff that will change CAISO’s governance structure and allow a new regional organization to oversee Western energy markets.

ERCOT released its semiannual but delayed Capacity, Demand and Reserves report that provides potential future planning reserve margins five years into the future that some say are "scary."

Spiking capacity prices in PJM have PPL and Exelon pushing for a potential return to utility-owned generation in Pennsylvania, which three former PUC chairs warned would be harmful to consumers.
