CAISO’s New Day-Ahead Market Starts With Calm Prices and Early Signs of Regional Coordination
Key Takeaways
- CAISO says its new Extended Day-Ahead Market has launched smoothly with PacifiCorp as the first participant.
- Early pricing patterns have stayed within expected ranges, with midday softness and higher evening prices.
- All EDAM areas passed the market’s resource sufficiency evaluation, and regional transfers rose to 600 MW.
- Price convergence suggests co-optimization is working, while later divergence shows transmission and generation constraints still bind.
