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

Jon Lamson will check in on the ISO-NE Planning Advisory Committee and relay any news from the meeting.

Vincent Gabrielle will follow along with the NYISO ICAP Working Group, as well as the Electric System Planning Working Group. 

Devin Leith-Yessian will dish on the PJM Risk Management Committee, which is set to vote on a proposal to revise how the RTO calculates the credit risk associated with bilateral capacity transactions. Elsewhere, the Markets and Reliability Committee will vote on a proposal to revise the financial parameters underlying the CONE values for the 2027/28 capacity auction, while the Members Committee will consider same-day endorsement of CONE and EE proposals. 

Amanda Durish Cook will dive into the MISO Resource Adequacy Subcommittee, as it will kick off a discussion on possibly replacing its current 0.1 days/year resource adequacy with a different standard, which may involve expected unserved energy. 

Tom Kleckner will report on ERCOT’s Board of Directors meetings. The  board and its committees meet Monday and Tuesday and will vote on NOGRR245, which would impose voltage ride-through requirements on IBRs. Staff and stakeholders have been negotiating an agreement on the rule change since late last year but have been unable to reach consensus. 

Ayla Burnett will have a story on a CAISO Storage Bid Cost Recovery and Default Energy Bids Enhancements workshop. The ISO and stakeholders will continue to discuss how to revise bid cost recovery provisions as it relates to storage resources. 

Holden Mann will be on top of the NERC Standards Committee meeting, where the committee will discuss potential changes to drafting teams for ongoing standards development projects, along with hearing an update on FERC's order regarding reliability of inverter-based resources. 

The details on all the meetings above can be found on our calendar. 

The RTO Insider team will also have a bunch of other news, so be sure to check out the website and our daily emails throughout the week!
