ReliabilityFirst publishes Winter Reliability Assessment and Long-Term Reliability Assessment results

ReliabilityFirst published its 2023-2024 Winter Reliability Resource Risk Assessment and its 2023 Long-Term Reliability Assessment results Wednesday.

Winter Reliability Resource Risk Assessment

RF annually performs a seasonal winter reliability assessment to ensure that its footprint has adequate resources to serve anticipated demand. This assessment is comprised of two distinct types of analysis for each assessment area, PJM and MISO. Click here to read about the results of this assessment.

Long-Term Reliability Assessment

RF performs an annual assessment to ensure that its footprint has adequate resources to serve anticipated load demand for the next 10-year period. Each assessment area within RF (i.e., PJM and MISO) has a targeted reserve margin level, which identifies the minimum number of resources needed to meet a loss of load expectation (LOLE) of one day in 10 years. The results of this assessment express each area’s ability to meet the targeted reserve margin level. RF developed this assessment collaboratively with data provided from both PJM and MISO.
