Management explicitly stated they will NOT sign contracts taking commodity risk on generation and energy, even if it means not participating in PJM's phase two procurement, which could cool PJM's plans for utility involvement in new generation builds. — A key potential market participant is signaling it will refuse to accept the proposed risk allocation, undermining the feasibility of PJM's proposed mechanism and de-risking FE against downside exposure.
근거
“We believe that PJM's proposed reliability backdrop procurement auction could be a step in the right direction, although there is a significant amount of detail needed to ensure the right amount of dispatchable generation is procured at”

근거
“The sellers need to be thoughtful about how much they're going to squeeze that pricing because that goes to the affordability issue and there are political implications”
