Note from the editor
On Wednesday, we ran an article reporting ISO-New England would ask FERC for approval to designate two units of a gas plant near Boston as Reliability Must Run (RMR) resources.
That is incorrect.
ISO-NE no longer designates resources as RMR. Instead, when it feels reliability is threatened, the grid operator now asks FERC to approve a Reliability Agreement that would allow it to keep uneconomic resources online outside of its tariff structure.
That is what is happening here. As reported, ISO-NE is asking FERC to approve cost recovery for two units at the Mystic Generating Station, but not through an RMR agreement.
