PJM capacity prices set another record with 22% jump. The Trump administration will likely seize on the auction results to justify keeping thermal power plants, namely coal, in PJM from retiring, according to analysts with Capstone. Capacity prices in the PJM Interconnection’s latest capacity auction hit a $329.17/MW-day price cap across its region, up 22% from a year ago for most of PJM, the grid operator said Tuesday. PJM expects the increase to record-high capacity prices for the 12-month period that starts in June 2026 could lead to 1.5% to 5% bill increases for some ratepayers, depending on what state they are in. PJM estimates that without a price cap that was established in an agreement with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, D, the capacity price for the 2026-27 delivery year would have been nearly $389/MW-day, or about 18% higher. The latest auction results are a boon to power plant owners such as Talen, Constellation, NRG, Vistra and Public Service Enterprise Group, according to Jefferies. Constellation cleared 18,025 MW in the auction, up from 17,500 MW a year ago, the independent power producer said in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Vistra said it cleared 10,314 MW compared to 10,255 MW in the previous auction. Power plant owners hailed the results even as consumer advocates decried the rising costs that will be passed on to the public.

While Federal Energy Regulatory Commission reforms aim to accelerate interconnection, regional differences can significantly affect project timelines. It is essential for renewable energy developers to understand how your specific market operates. In an article published by Utility Dive, Balch’s Kevin McNamee, Abby Fox, and Ricky Cox outline how renewable energy producers can navigate Orders 2023 and 2023-A, what varies from region to region, and the key decisions developers should evaluate when approaching the interconnection process. #ICYMI #EnergyLaw #BalchLeads #FERC #RenewableEnergy 🔗 How Renewable Energy Producers can Navigate FERC’s New Interconnection Rules: https://direc.to/n_uD
