A proposal to elevate the Western Energy Markets Governing Body’s authority over CAISO energy markets was unanimously approved by the Governing Body and ISO Board of Governors

CAISO will recommend its board approve a proposal to eventually give the WEM Governing Body increased authority over both the Western EIM and EDAM.

The WEIM Governing Body voted to change its name to the “Western Energy Markets” Governing Body to better reflect its full scope of responsibility since it began overseeing CAISO’s EDAM.
