Early Summer Heat Pressures Eastern Markets
from Vedeni Energy’s Deep Dive · host Vedeni Energy, LLC
Wholesale power markets for the seven-day period ending Friday, June 5, 2026, moved decisively out of late-spring shoulder conditions and into an early-summer risk posture. The clearest stress emerged in the East, where PJM issued a Hot Weather Alert for June 5–6 across its Mid-Atlantic and Southern regions ahead of 90-degree temperatures. ISO New England and NYISO, by contrast, remained in summer-readiness mode without a comparable public reliability signal. In the West and central regions, conditions were steadier: CAISO continued routine real-time and EDAM reporting; SPP and MISO maintained active planning and stakeholder calendars; and ERCOT posted largely routine operating notices despite a notable June 1 generation-loss event that did not escalate into a broader emergency.
