Two competing day-ahead markets from CAISO and SPP are taking different approaches to resource sufficiency and adequacy, according to presenters at a workshop included in a regulatory effort to help inform NV Energy’s decision on which market to join.
A key factor in the CAISO EDAM advantage is the benefits the utility would lose by leaving the Western Energy Imbalance Market, a Brattle Group consultant said.
Nevada regulators approved NV Energy’s plan to convert its last coal-fired power plant to natural gas, while also allowing the company to move forward with a $1.5 billion, 400-MW solar-plus-storage project.
NV Energy is aiming to bring a proposal to Nevada regulators by the end of the year for joining a day-ahead market, but what process regulators will use to evaluate that request is still very much up in the air.
NV Energy and several stakeholder groups have weighed in on how Nevada regulators should evaluate a request from the utility to join a day-ahead market or RTO.
CAISO’s Board of Governors approved the inclusion of the Southwest Intertie Project-North in to the ISO’s 2022-2023 transmission portfolio.
The Bureau of Land Management is seeking public input on potential changes to about 673 miles of seven designated transmission corridors.
Many at the joint conference focused on the eventual result of the contest between CAISO's Extended Day-Ahead Market and SPP's Markets+ to organize the West's electricity market.
Legislators ended the session by passing bills related to IRPs for electric and gas utilities and a bill creating a zero-emission truck incentive program.
A bill to strengthen the IRP process for Nevada utilities and require them to increase their energy independence has emerged late in the legislature’s session.
