  • Testimony of Evelyn Robinson, Managing Partner – State Government Policy PJM Interconnection, L.L.C March 4, 2021
    Before the Indiana Senate Utilities Committee Testimony of Evelyn Robinson, Managing Partner – State Government Policy PJM Interconnection, L.L.C March 4, 2021 For Public Use Testimony of Evelyn Robinson, Managing Partner – State Government Policy Introduction Good day Chairman Koch, Ranking Member Perfect and esteemed members of the Utilities Committee. My name is Evelyn Robinson, and I am the Managing Partner within the State Government Policy Department at PJM Interconnection, L.L.C (“PJM”). Thank you for having me today. I am here before this committee to speak on PJM’s role as a regional transmission organization (“RTO”) and to discuss PJM’s winter preparedness and performance during the recent cold weather event. As an RTO, PJM’s primary focus is the reliable operation of the nation’s largest electric grid for 65 million people in 13 states and Washington, D.C. – including portions of Indiana. As illustrated in Figure 1 of my testimony, our service territory extends from New Jersey to Illinois, encompassing the Indiana/Michigan electric utility portion of the AEP transmission zone. This scale allows us to provide reliable electric service from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River; from the Great Lakes to the Outer Banks. Figure 1. Map of PJM Footprint Like the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (“MISO”), PJM is situated within what is called the Eastern Interconnection, one of the three major electric grids in the continental United States. As illustrated in Figure 2 below, the Eastern Interconnection, the Western Interconnection and the Texas Interconnection typically operate independent of each other. The Eastern Interconnection extends from the Atlantic coast to the Rocky Mountains and operates as one harmonized machine.

  • News Release
    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PJM Board of Managers Approves Proposal to Address Capacity Market Reform Decision Shows Successful Conclusion in Stakeholder Process (Valley Forge, PA – July 8, 2021) – PJM Interconnection’s Board of Managers has approved a proposal to address long-standing concerns with the Minimum Offer Price Rule (MOPR) in the PJM capacity market. Following presentations on nine proposals from PJM and its stakeholders, the PJM proposal received the highest sector-weighted vote by members. The PJM Board selected the proposal because it accommodates state policy and self-supply business models, addresses attempted exercises of buyer-side market power, and creates a sustainable market design by keeping clearing prices consistent with supply and demand fundamentals. The PJM proposal achieved broad consensus under a unique, accelerated stakeholder process, called the Critical Issue Fast Path (CIFP). This was the first time the PJM Board has employed the CIFP process, an alternative to the normal stakeholder process designed to expeditiously resolve issues that are contentious or time sensitive. “In the first-ever use of the CIFP process, stakeholders have successfully tackled a complex issue in a compressed time frame, achieving both a workable solution and broad consensus behind that solution,” said PJM President and CEO Manu Asthana. “This proposal ensures that our capacity market accommodates state policy and self-supply business models, avoids customer costs of double-procurement, addresses attempted exercises of buyer-side market power, and creates a sustainable market design by keeping clearing prices consistent with supply and demand fundamentals,” Asthana said. PJM expects to work diligently to make a FERC filing with the goal of incorporating the changes into the 2023/2024 Delivery Year Base Residual Auction, to be held in December 2021.

This differs from PJM where natural gas and coal are relatively even at 35 and 34 percent respectively. • Interconnection Requests: Natural gas represents approximately 86 percent of new interconnection requests in Ohio. • Deactivations: Approximately 94.6 MW of capacity in Ohio retired in 2016. This represents more than 24 percent of the 392 MW that retired RTO-wide in 2016. • RTEP 2016: Ohio RTEP 2016 projects total more than $160 million in investment. Approximately 44 percent of that represents supplemental projects. • Load Forecast: Ohio load growth is nearly flat, averaging between .1 and .5 percent per year over the next 10 years. This aligns with PJM RTO load growth projections. www.pjm.com 3 PJM©2017 Executive Summary (July 2017) • 2020/21 Capacity Market: Compared to the PJM footprint, Ohio’s distribution of generation, demand response and energy efficiency is similar. • 6/1/14 – 5/31/17 Performance: Ohio’s average daily locational marginal prices were consistently at or below PJM average daily LMPs. Coal resources represented 44 percent of generation produced in Ohio while imports averaged 25 percent. • Emissions: 2016 carbon dioxide emissions are slightly up from 2015; sulfur dioxides are slightly down while nitrogen oxides continue to hold flat from 2015.
