PJM, Constellation and the Independent Market Monitor plan to bring competing proposals to define rules for operating battery storage as a transmission asset.

PJM’s Independent Market Monitor warned the cost of wholesale power in the RTO will continue to rise with the rapid addition of data center load without enough capacity to serve it.

PJM and stakeholders laid out their initial thoughts on the structure of the in-development reliability backstop procurement as the RTO looks to meet a September target set out by the White House and all 13 member states’ governors.

PJM and the Independent Market Monitor are drafting proposals to rework the RTO’s reserve market.

The White House and PJM's governors called for a special backstop capacity auction to procure $15 billion worth of new dispatchable generation, which is to be paid for by data centers.

FERC and the organized power markets it oversees are facing huge challenges in trying to meet rising demand reliably and affordably.

Several stakeholders presented proposals for how PJM could address accelerating load growth as the Critical Issue Fast Path process on large load growth wraps up its second phase.

William & Mary Law School announced it has appointed former FERC Chair Mark Christie as the 2025 Lowance Fellow, a visiting professor of the practice of law and the founding director of the school’s new Center for Energy Law & Policy.
