The PJM Markets and Reliability Committee voted to eliminate energy efficiency from the capacity construct, adopting a proposal from the Monitor.

The Market Implementation Committee endorsed a PJM proposal to revise how the capacity offered by energy efficiency resources is measured and verified, rejecting competing proposals from EE providers and the Monitor.

Exelon is focused on meeting rising demand from data centers and manufacturing, company officials said during its second-quarter earnings call.

PJM stakeholders presented several proposals to revise how energy efficiency resources are measured and verified to the Market Implementation Committee.
