Virtually all electricity produced and consumed in New England is overseen and passed through wholesale markets operated by ISO New England Inc (ISO-NE).  ISO's three key roles are: to coordinate  and direct the flow of electricity throughout the region to maintain a balance between electric consumption and electric production, to oversee and administer settlements between entities withdrawing power from the grid and injecting power to the grid; and  to prepare studies to identify future electric system needs.

 

ISO-NE operates under authority granted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).  These market rules have become extremely complicated and often need updating based on changing conditions in the region.  Under its federal charter, ISO-NE is required to consult with regional "stakeholders" before any of these rules can be changed.  Understanding this process and trying to influence these outcomes can be challenging and takes a greater time commitment than smaller not-for-profit entities can afford.  Energy Market Advisors provides the expertise and focused insight that such entities need to be effective in this process and better serve their customers.
