  • Abstract
    Signs are emerging that north american power markets are moving toward commonality and maturity in their function, if not their operations. More than ten years after the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) announced its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) on standard market design (SMD), major U.S. power markets now seem to have a basis on which to voluntarily provide similar pricing granularity and hedging capabilities to their participants.
