A round-up of news from the PJM Planning Committee on Nov. 4, 2014.

PJM stakeholders representing supply and load accused each other of refusing to compromise on changes to the $1,000 offer cap Thursday in one of the most acrimonious debates in the last year.

FERC said PJM should not have included a 10% adder in its calculation of make-whole payments to generators whose costs exceeded the offer cap last winter.

State officials and generation owners promised last week to challenge the assumptions the EPA used in its proposed carbon rule.

The EPA’s proposed regulations on carbon emissions would increase electric bills and harm reliability, Virginia SCC staff members said.

Generators that planned to retire coal-fired units ahead of the EPA's MATS extension deadline say they may accelerate retirements to avoid MISO penalties.

PJM is one of nine Registered Entities that has agreed to take part in a review of grid recovery and restoration plans with FERC and NERC.

If you want to see the value of dual-fuel capability, look no further than NYISO, where 47% of the generation can run on oil or natural gas.

PJM members agreed last week to consider cutting compensation for Tier 1 synchronized reserves, but PJM officials are likely to oppose a change.

Holding firm on their plans to redefine the capacity market, PJM officials Tuesday offered a revised capacity performance proposal that they said is less punitive and restrictive.
