Stakeholder session

Purpose

We are continuing the engagement sessions with industry stakeholders to advance the Restructured Energy Market (REM) Design.

 Objectives:

1. Discuss and Clarify Design: Provide the AESO an opportunity to explain the rationale and intent behind the recent refinements to the REM design. Stakeholders attending in person will be able to ask questions and gain clarity on the updates and next steps.
2. Explore Design Impact and Interdependencies: Discuss how we are changing the proposed REM design. We will:
   • Keep and enhance the day-ahead market for reliability reserves
   • No longer moving ahead with the proposed day-ahead commitment market and the day-ahead energy scheduling market
   • Consult on a possible increase to the offer cap; and review the reliability unit commitment mechanism
   • Gather participant perspectives on what considerations the AESO should take into account as it evaluates the broader impacts and design

3. Align on Stakeholder Needs and Priorities: Identify the information, formats, and topics that stakeholders need to move forward in the consultation process efficiently. Reassess and realign on priority topics for future discussions
