  • Abstract
    This paper outlines the market design changes undertaken by the ISO/RTOs in the US Eastern Interconnection to improve the regional dispatch. The paper shows that by managing regional congestion and increasing the frequency of energy interchange together with setting appropriate prices at "proxy buses" achieves significant improvements in regional dispatch efficiency. The savings from such regional coordination runs at several hundred million dollars a year.
