The West’s New Day-Ahead Market Is a Management Test, Not Just a Market Launch
from Vedeni Energy’s Deep Dive · host Vedeni Energy, LLC
If you spend your days running utility operations, planning outages, dealing with regulators, or trying to keep projects moving through a company already juggling too many priorities, this week offered a fresh reminder that market design is not some distant policy subject. It becomes a management subject the moment a new market goes live and begins to change how power is scheduled, how transmission is used, how risks are shared, and how accountability is spread across state lines. That is why the launch of the Extended Day-Ahead Market, or EDAM, stood out this week as the most important leadership and management topic in the U.S. electric power industry.
