PJM on Thursday delayed a vote on manual changes for the Capacity Performance plan, sidestepping a potential confrontation with anxious stakeholders.

PJM’s plan to implement new demand response rules in time for the May capacity auction are in doubt following a FERC order requiring the RTO to provide more information to support its proposal.
