A Transformational Step for the Entergy Operating Companies.

 

At Entergy, we remain committed to delivering clean, safe, reliable energy at an affordable cost to our customers. As part of that ongoing effort, Entergy Corporation announced in April that, based on comprehensive review and analysis, it has concluded that joining the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator will provide meaningful long-term benefits for the customers of the Entergy operating companies.

MISO is an independent Regional Transmission Organization that manages and operates the transmission system within its region and also operates a centralized market-driven dispatch process. This organized market, often referred to as a "Day 2 market," is projected to provide the operating companies' customers in excess of $1 billion of production cost savings over a 10-year period. Additionally, the scope of the MISO market is substantial; with Entergy as a member, the footprint of the organization would extend from the Canadian Border to the Gulf of Mexico.
