SPP and Western entities interested in the RTO’s Markets+ “RTO light” offering continued to inch toward each other during another development session.

Canadian utility SaskPower and SPP have signed a 20-year agreement to more than quadruple transmission capacity between the two entities.

MISO and SPP say they have plenty of constrained flowgates that could become candidates for smaller, cross-border transmission projects.

SPP says it is limiting attendance at its scheduled October governance meetings to only roster members of the Board of Directors, Members Committee and RSC.

SPP stakeholders approved the ability of market participants facing fuel limitations to include opportunity costs in their mitigated offers.

OGE has shed 77% of its investment in Enable Midstream Partners for an $813 million return at an average price of $11.09/unit, a 33% premium since December.

SPP’s Western Energy Imbalance Service market saw “very limited growth” in its first 13 months, SPP’s MMU said in its first annual report on the market.

SPP’s Board of Directors approved stakeholders’ recommendation to issue a notification to construct a 345-kV double-circuit transmission project in New Mexico.

Stakeholders are concerned over the comments MISO plans to submit on FERC’s recently proposed transmission planning rule.

FERC proposed allowing RTOs to share credit information about market participants, fulfilling a request the grid operators made at a 2021 technical conference.
