This effort explores opportunities to determine LCR combinations that minimize total New York Control Area (NYCA) capacity cost while maintaining minimum reliability criteria in NYCA and each of the Localities.
Alt. Methods for Determining Locational Capacity Requirements
Ancillary Services Shortage Pricing
While there exists a competitive entry exemption to buyer side mitigation, that exemption may not be adequate to facilitate the replacement of an existing generating unit with a new unit (sometimes referred to as repowering ). A focused exemption may be appropriate in order to revise market rules so that they do not discourage or prevent replacements, while adequately protecting the integrity of the wholesale markets. This effort would seek to evaluate and develop a proposal for a buyer side mitigation exemption that specifically addresses the concerns with replacement (repowered) generation projects and encourages private investment. This exemption is intended to provide greater certainty and decrease the risk to generation developers owners that pursue replacement projects. The exemption would be compatible with market based principles and would not seek to support or encourage subsidized new entry.
[BSM] Buyer-Side Mitigation Repowering
The State of New York Public Service Commission's Clean Energy Standard increases the amount of renewable energy generation in New York State such that 50% of New York's electricity is generated by renewable energy resources by 2030, while retaining upstate nuclear power plants as a bridge to the State's decarbonization goals. This effort will vet wholesale market concepts to harmonize the State's decarbonization goals and the wholesale energy and capacity market design. The effort will include consideration of market design changes as well as market products for energy and capacity markets that support viable and efficient wholesale markets for maintaining needed existing and incenting new resources necessary to sustain reliable grid operations over the long run. As part of the evaluation, a comprehensive review of the impacts that may result from a major incremental influx of renewable energy resources and associated market design changes to account for these impacts will be studied. This effort will also include, as necessary, responding to actions taken by FERC in its State Public Policy Proceeding.
Carbon Pricing
Climate Change Impact and Resilience Study
This effort will discuss with stakeholders effective eligibility rules for a Competitive Entry Exemption for projects that request increased CRIS.
Competitive Entry Exemption for Increased CRIS
This effort will explore modifications to NYISO market structures in a balanced manner to preserve competitive prices signals and economically efficient market outcomes required to maintain system reliability and enable the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) goals.
Comprehensive Mitigation Review
This effort will review the NYISO's separate comprehensive system planning processes and consider whether it may be beneficial to revise and or further integrate the reliability, economic, and public policy planning processes.
Comprehensive System Planning Process Review
Constraint Specific Transmission Shortage Pricing
Demand Curve Reset
The NYISO released its Distributed Energy Resource (DER) Roadmap in February 2017, as a first step to enhancing its market rules for DER participation in the NYISO's energy, ancillary services, and capacity markets. The NYISO is also currently evaluating potential modifications to its existing Demand Response programs as part of this effort. This project will continue developing the market design concepts outlined in the Roadmap, including developing an understanding of how to balance the simultaneous participation of DER in retail level programs and in the NYISO administrated wholesale markets, consistent with the operational and reliability needs of both the transmission and local distribution systems. This project will include the design of DER performance obligations, metering and telemetry requirements, baseline and performance measurement and verification rules, resource modeling, and the development of an understanding of how to balance the simultaneous participation of DER in retail level programs, as well as the NYISO's wholesale markets.
Distributed Energy Resources Participation Model
This effort will explore participation models for energy storage resources in the energy, ancillary service and capacity markets, including consideration of opportunities to improve the optimization of energy storage resources on a least cost basis.
Energy Storage Integration & Optimization
Enhancing Fuel and Energy Security
This project seeks to develop market participation rules for font-of-the-meter renewable generators collocated with Energy Storage Resources, with a 2020 milestone of Market Design Complete. The deliverable includes a consumer impact analysis and a Market Design Complete presentation to stakeholders. 2020 project efforts will build on work completed as part of the Energy Storage Resource and DER Integration initiatives, by developing market rules that better integrate large-scale weather dependent and energy storage resources co-located behind a single interconnection point.

This effort will assess the implementation of a methodology for managing certain 115kV transmission constraints in the day ahead and real time markets, including mitigation measures for resources that are committed or dispatched to manage these constraints.
Model 100+ kV Transmission Constraints
This project will evaluate a locational framework for creation (on ramps) and elimination (off ramps) of Localities that ensures that locational capacity prices would adjust to reflect changes in market conditions. The on ramp off ramp project will leverage prior stakeholder discussions on the elimination of capacity zones to develop a market design for the creation and elimination of zones based upon reliability principles.
On Ramps and Off Ramps for Zones
This project will continue to address import and export issues associated with work being conducted in 2017 that addresses Locality Exchange Factors for exports. The objectives are to study and, if necessary modify, the capacity market and planning processes to better account for capacity that is imported from and exported to neighboring Control Areas, including the impacts that imports over AC interfaces have on locational requirements.
Treatment of Capacity Exports from Localities
