As states advance their climate policies with ambitious clean energy targets, wholesale market operators are grappling with questions about if and how electricity markets should evolve as a response. Several ISO/RTOs are looking to change their market rules to include carbon pricing, but there is a diversity in approaches.
The Institute for Policy Integrity and Duke University’s Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions are hosting a conference in Washington, D.C., that will focus on the different approaches for carbon pricing in wholesale energy markets.
You can view the full agenda here. Here’s info on how you can watch the live stream.
CLE credit is available. Here are the readings for:
- Panel 1: ISO/RTO Carbon Pricing Initiatives
