Metering rules enhancements
The ISO metering requirements have remained relatively unchanged since 1998. Meanwhile the energy landscape has dramatically changed with the growth in renewables, energy storage, distributed energy resources, energy imbalance market expansion, complex metering configuration needs, and efforts to integrate western balancing areas with the ISO. This initiative will review existing metering requirements and propose possible revisions to accommodate these changes.
Outcome
The enhancements were implemented on April 10, 2017 and designed in conjunction with external stakeholders to help reduce metering costs and provide additional metering flexibility for market participants while maintaining meter data integrity.
