MISO is coordinating with related efforts to refine the Multiple Configuration Resources (MCR) implementation plan and continuing to make progress where possible. MISO is continuing to project the earliest MCR implementation will be in 2026. Future updates on MCR will be provided when meaningful progress has been made.
10/08/2020
An update was provided at the Market Subcommittee on implementation plans for Multiple Configuration Resources (MCR), including plans for enhanced modeling of Combined Cycle generators. The project name has been changed to "Multiple Configuration Resources" from "Enhanced Modeling of Combined Cycle Generators" to reflect the updated scope of this potential solution.

The timeline has been cleared beyond the anticipated FERC filing and review period to reflect uncertainty with respect to a specific build, and implementation schedule. The timeline will be updated as those schedules become more clear. Build was previously scheduled to start in Q4 2022 with Implementation anticipated in Q2 2023.
06/09/2020
Anticipated FERC filing included in the timeline starting Q1 2021. GE is developing a design white paper for adding Multi-Configuration Resource (MCR), largely based on MISO's ECC conceptual design, in the new Market Clearing Engine. After reviewing GE's design proposal, MISO will work with GE to develop an implementation approach and share with stakeholders.
