The Reliability Resource Initiative (RRI) offers a unique, one-time opportunity for shovel-ready projects that can be brought online quickly to strengthen grid reliability. PJM will now rely on a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission-approved rating process to select up to 50 of these projects. This targeted approach will help ensure a timely boost in dependable generation capacity to support growing demand, alongside projects already progressing through PJM’s interconnection queue.
We will soon publish our Capacity Watch for PJM report, which provides a comprehensive analysis of market drivers and recent developments, including Market Rules Changes for Capacity Accreditation (ELCC & CIFP), Increased Demand Forecast for Data Centers & AI and Retirement Drivers: At-risk assets driven by coal ash rules.
