Capacity auctions are market-based mechanisms used in the energy sector to ensure that there is enough available electricity generation capacity to meet future demand. The auctions are typically employed by grid operators or regulators to maintain reliability in the electricity supply. We monitor capacity auctions for the PJM, NYISO, ISO-NE and MISO regions.
