For help getting started with Short-Term Reserve, check out the Short-Term Reserve Fast Facts documents in the Documents/Whitepapers section of this page.

Short-term capacity, which can provide energy within a relatively short period of time (e.g. 30 minutes), is an important tool for maintaining reliability, providing the ability to manage capacity needs that may not be addressed by Operating Reserves and the Ramp Capability Reserve product. This project explores options, including existing and/or new pricing mechanisms, for ensuring the availability of short-term capacity in an efficient manner to address Voltage and Local Reliability (VLR), regional, and system-wide requirements. 

This issue was submitted by Potomac Economics, MISO's Independent Market Monitor (IMM) and is synonymous with State of the Market (SOM) recommendations 2016-4 and 2014-2.

MISO reviewed STR performance and settlement impacts as part of formal post-implementation validation at the January MSC.

MISO submitted Tariff revisions to enhance the demand curves for the Short-Term Reserve (“STR”) and Up Ramp Capability products.

07/14/2022

Due to software implementation delays, MISO filed a request for waiver of certain Tariff provisions until Sep. 28, 2022, for Short Term Reserves.

12/16/2021

MISO submitted an answer in response to the protested filed in the November 22, 2021 filing of revisions to MISO’s Tariff reflecting the inability of MISO’s systems to clear SER – Type II, and storage Resources eligible to be SER – Type II but register as DRR – Type II for off-line Supplemental Reserve and off-line Short-Term Reserve.

11/22/2021

MISO submitted a limited waiver request of certain Tariff provisions regarding the provision by Stored Energy Resources – Type II, as well as by storage Resources that are otherwise eligible to be registered as SER–Type II but instead register as Demand Response Resource –Type II.

11/22/2021

MISO submitted Tariff revisions to reflect the fact that MISO’s systems currently do not have, and cannot feasibly acquire, the capability to clear Offers of Stored Energy Resources – Type II to provide off-line Supplemental Reserve and off-line Short-Term Reserve; and that this limitation also applies to storage Resources that are otherwise eligible to be registered as SER – Type II but instead register as Demand Response Resources – Type II.

11/04/2021

At the November 4 Market Subcommittee (MSC), MISO reported that production operation of Short-Term Reserve (STR) is on track for delivery on December 7, 2021. MISO hosted a second STR workshop to discuss submitting offers in the new MUI 2.0 system. STR tariff filings/updates are still pending at FERC. MISO discussed the limitations of Electric Storage Resources (ESR) and Stored Energy Resource (SER) Type II to provide offline STR. MISO plans to make FERC filing (Tariff changes and/or waiver) to reflect that SER-II cannot be cleared to provide offline STR and offline Supp, and issue will be addressed in connection with ESR implementation.

10/08/2021

MISO submitted Tariff revisions to ensure that the Short-Term Reserve (“STR”) product, scheduled to take effect on December 7, 2021, will not be prioritized over Regulating Reserve in MISO’s markets.

08/19/2021

MISO submitted Tariff revisions to clarify the ineligibility of Dispatchable Intermittent Resources (“DIRs”) and Intermittent Resources to provide online Short-Term Reserve (“STR”).

08/05/2021
