The New York State Reliability Council OK'd interconnection standards for inverter-based resources larger than 20 MW.  

The NYSRC Executive Committee approved the modeling assumptions for its 2024/25 installed reserve margin requirement study base case and discussed potential cap-and-invest updates.

NYSRC's Executive Committee approved the preliminary base case for the upcoming capability year and new emergency operating procedures aimed at enhancing grid reliability.

The committee discussed future energy deficiencies in New York City, NYISO's demand curve reset and impacts from extreme weather in the region.

New York City faces a 446-MW shortfall in 2025 because of plant retirements and the delayed completion of the Champlain Hudson Power Express, NYISO said.
