MISO projects risk of insufficient firm generation resources to cover peak load in summer months

Texas has already seen some problems when unusually warm spring temperatures covered the state last month.
MISO projects risk of insufficient firm generation resources to cover peak load in summer months
Today, the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) projected the need for increased, non-firm imports and potentially emergency resources to meet the 2022 summer peak demand with warmer-than-normal temperatures forecasted throughout the MISO footprint. The summer peak forecast is 124 GW with 119 GW of projected regularly available generation within MISO.
