New York ISO Wholesale Market Aggregation (FERC 2222)

Central Hudson has filed proposed tariff changes effective July 1, 2023, to better allow customers with generating equipment to export to NYISO through its wholesale Distributed Energy Resource (DER) participation models, either directly or through an aggregation. Central Hudson’s tariff changes add Wholesale Value Stack and Wholesale Distribution Service provisions which specify the type of compensation that customers with behind the meter generation can receive from Central Hudson when also exporting to the NYISO. Specifically, these changes remove energy and/or capacity compensation from the Value Stack payment made by Central Hudson for customers receiving payment for these components from the NYISO. Additionally, customers exporting to the NYISO are no longer eligible to participate in Net Energy Metering or Buyback service from Central Hudson. The entire filing can be found on the Public Service Commission’s website here.

Telemetry
