LCG, May 14, 2026--The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced today that it is proposing a rule to revise wastewater limits, known as effluent limitations guidelines (ELG), for steam electric power plants that will help improve grid reliability and lower electricity prices while continuing to support clean and safe water resources. If finalized, the EPA's proposal is estimated to reduce electricity generation costs by as much as $1.1 billion annually, which could provide cost-savings to American consumers.

Press Release
Workshop on Valuing Congestion Revenue Rights in the California MRTU
For immediate release. LCG Consulting will host a workshop covering methodologies for valuing Congestion Revenue Rights (CRR) in the Californian electricity market.
Date: September 9, 2009
Venue: Stanford University
The Market Redesign and Technology Upgrade (MRTU) launched by the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) on March 31, 2009 brought comprehensive changes in the way power markets are operated in California. Wholesale power is now offered at thousands of locations throughout the CAISO network, presenting participants with a new set of opportunities in conjunction with associated risks.
The key financial product with which market participants can arm themselves in this locational marketplace is the Congestion Revenue Right (CRR). CRRs can be used to protect existing positions and to create new opportunities.
Because there is very little history behind this product, the level of sophistication needed to effectively manage CRRs in these markets is lacking. This workshop will facilitate a discussion between market participants on this topic and cover some advanced techniques for effective CRR valuation.
