Mark J. Volpe, president and CEO of the Coalition of Midwest Power Producers (COMPP), recounts the migration of merchant generators from MISO to PJM.

Rising state subsidies for renewable and nuclear power require PJM to revamp its MOPR to address price suppression in its capacity market, FERC ruled.

Calpine and AEP are offering alternatives to plans for complying with FERC Order 842, which requires some generators to provide primary frequency response.

Three owners of gas-fired generation in PJM’s territory have filed a complaint asking FERC to direct the RTO to adopt what they’ve termed a “clean MOPR.”

FERC approved settlement agreements among CAISO, Pacific Gas and Electric and Calpine covering reliability-must-run contracts for three Northern California gas-fired plants, reducing the revenue they will receive and making them subject to a must-offer requirement.

CAISO, Pacific Gas and Electric and Calpine have settled their differences over the terms of the reliability-must-run (RMR) agreements.

Three top generators in Maine have asked the state’s PUC to allow them to intervene in the proceeding on the New England Clean Energy Connect.

FERC instituted proceedings to examine the reactive rate schedules of two MISO generating facilities, one of which is owned by Calpine.

The Texas PUC postponed until March a decision on whether to remove reliability unit commitments from ERCOT’s operating reserve demand curve.

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued several decisions that will affect the state’s energy resource mix and markets.
