NEPOOL's Markets Committee approved changes to the Inventoried Energy Program intended to get the winter reliability program in line with global energy markets.

NERC staff called the Winter Reliability Assessment a “serious warning” that highlighted the possibility of “bigger problems” compared to last winter.

FERC has corrected an “incorrect statement” by making a small modification to its annual Winter Energy Market and Reliability Assessment issued last week.

FERC staff said the grid seems well positioned to weather the cold months. However, rising demand is expected to drive gas prices higher than last year’s.

NESCOE urged ISO-NE to share confidential data about fuel supply and grid reliability with FERC ahead of the upcoming winter.

ISO-NE is not going to try for an out-of-market solution to New England's winter reliability woes this year.

An exchange of letters between ISO-NE and Connecticut's top energy regulator shows tension still remains about how to handle winter reliability worries.

A new report from FERC says the U.S. energy market seems ready for the winter months but warned that the risks of extreme weather are still a major factor.

FERC defended its ruling approving bidding results in ISO-NE’s 2013/14 Winter Reliability Program in response to TransCanada Power Marketing.

FERC reaffirmed its conclusion that the results of ISO-NE’s 2013/14 Winter Reliability Program were just and reasonable despite the fact that the largest participants may have had market power.
