Participants Agreement and NESCOE MOU

The Participants Agreement

This is a legal document formalizing the collaborative process between ISO New England, New England Power Pool (NEPOOL) participants, and individual market participants that are not members of NEPOOL. This process allows these stakeholders to have input on issues affecting system operations, markets, and planning. Matters detailed in the Participants Agreement include:

• The processes by which participants will provide—and the ISO will receive, consider, and respond to—input and advice, including advisory voting on the selection of ISO Board of Directors members
• The establishment of many of the committees and working groups that advise the ISO
• The rights and responsibilities of NEPOOL in the collaborative process
• The ISO’s mission as the Regional Transmission Organization for the region
