CRA supported Jersey Central Power and Light (JCP&L) in reviewing responsive options to reforms in the PJM capacity market, which threaten to lead to over-procurement and increased costs to ratepayers. CRA’s analysis, filed with the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities, was designed to inform JCP&L in understanding the economic and administrative considerations with certain responsive options, including a particular proposal put forth by other stakeholders.
