ISO-NE said the region has sufficient resources to meet peak demand this winter but warned some gas-fired plants may not be able to get fuel when needed.

NYISO’s Management Committee voted unanimously to recommend that the Board of Directors approve Tariff changes to speed up the interconnection process.

ERCOT said it will have sufficient installed capacity available to meet projected peak demand this winter and spring.

MISO is preparing for emergency conditions this winter despite projecting 40 GW of excess capacity to meet the forecasted peak in January.

NYISO reported that it confronted minimal operating challenges this past winter as New York enjoyed relatively mild weather for most of the season.

FERC approved PJM’s proposal to exclude atypically low usage winter peak days from load-serving entities’ winter peak load calculations.

NYISO said it will have adequate capacity on hand to meet its forecasted peak demand of 24,260 MW for the 2018/19 winter season.

ISO-NE said it expects to have sufficient capacity on hand this winter to meet load, which it forecasts will peak at 20,357 MW in normal conditions.

While MISO expects to have ample resources on hand for what should be a warmer-than-normal winter, it is still preparing for emergencies.

Most RTOs say they are ready for winter but the possibility of fuel shortages during an extended cold spell is keeping ISO-NE officials up at night.
