Stakeholders representing large electricity consumers say they believe NYISO’s proposed changes to the special case resource program will cause a mass exodus of participants.

NYISO's transmission planning requirements result in a need for more capacity than is required in the ISO’s market rules, according to Potomac Economics, the Market Monitoring Unit.

NYISO made significant updates to its assumptions as part of its final Reliability Needs Assessment, which now shows no concern of a capacity deficiency and a loss-of-load expectation of less than 0.1 in 2034.

NYISO proposed shortening the activation notice period for special-case resources from 21 hours to four, which caused consternation among program participants at the Installed Capacity Working Group’s meeting.

NYISO is proposing to increase the required duration of special-case resources' load curtailment from four hours to six following a survey showing stakeholder support as part of the ISO’s Engaging the Demand Side initiative.

NYISO defended its proposal to set a 10-kW minimum requirement for distributed energy resources to participate in an aggregation. 

NYISO stakeholders continued their criticism of the ISO’s effort to improve its demand response programs, saying it has inadequately addressed their concerns.

NYISO will see improved transmission deliverability within its borders and with PJM this winter but reduced interchange with ISO-NE, stakeholders were told.

Demand response providers in NYISO are concerned that proposed market rule changes will harm the economics of special case resources.

NYISO briefed the Installed Capacity/Market Issues Working Group on its efforts to improve capacity accreditation.
