Here are some of the stories RTO Insider plans on having for you next week: 

Jon Lamson will report on the NEPOOL Markets Committee and its vote on an additional delay to FCA 19. Jon will also have the details from the ISO-NE Planning Advisory Committee. 

John Norris will be in the room at the Independent Power Producers of New York (IPPNY) Annual Clean Energy Spring Conference on Monday and Tuesday. John will also tune into a UTEN Technical Conference, as well as see what is happening at the NYISO Installed Capacity/Market Issues/Price Responsive Load Working Group. 

Devin Leith-Yessian will report the news from the PJM Risk Management Committee, which will discuss the proposed “Enhanced Know Your Customer” proposal and continuing its work on bilateral capacity transaction credit risks. Meanwhile, the Markets and Reliability Committee will consider endorsing proposals to revise the availability window for demand response resources and competing packages to rework PJM’s measurement and verification of the capacity offered by energy efficiency resources. 

Hugh Morley will break down the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities stakeholder meeting on its fourth offshore wind solicitation where there figures to be a mix of coastal community and fishery opposition and industry support. 

Tom Kleckner will attend CERAWeek 2024. The “Super Bowl of energy” and one of the largest energy conferences in the world, CERAWeek will feature Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, philanthropist and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and a host of other corporate and government leaders from around the world. 

Ayla Burnett will have the details from a Western Energy Imbalance Market Regional Issues Forum, where members will discuss CAISO policy initiatives and energy storage and market integration.

James Downing will listen in on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee’s hearing to review the three FERC nominees that the White House announced last month. And the rest of the team will be all over FERC’s open meeting that same day. 

Holden Mann will follow along with the NERC Standards Committee, as members will hear updates on several ongoing standards projects, including the ERO’s high-priority projects. They will also discuss potential changes to the training process for new members.
