Puget Sound Energy announced it will participate in an Energy Imbalance Market (EIM) operated by the California Independent System Operator (ISO) effective Oct. 1, 2016.

Since 2012, PSE has also been participating in the Northwest Power Pool's (NWPP) Market and Coordination Committee (MC) Initiative that is exploring a similar model based in the Northwest.

"PSE's participation in the California EIM does not mean it has dropped its support of the regional NWPP MC efforts. Instead, PSE has elected to take a 'dual path' approach and participate in the ISO's EIM to generate economic and reliability benefits for PSE customers as quickly as possible, as well as continue to support development of the Northwest initiative," PSE said
