PJM's 2028/29 capacity auction cleared at its price cap, $325/MW-day, and still fell 6,831 MW short of the reliability requirement. Winter demand is the first real test of that tightness.

For NJ and NY businesses heading into heating season, the practical question is simple: what part of that tightness is already priced into your next renewal?

Three things worth checking this week:

• Contract expiration dates and notice deadlines for every meter
• Whether capacity costs are bundled or broken out in your supply rate
• Your demand trend heading into winter, since peaks set next year's capacity tag

Both signals can be true at once: cheap fuel, and a grid that costs more to keep reliable.

Your winter contract should be signed before the first cold snap, not after.

NYISO's own winter-preparedness message is blunt: fuel scarcity on the coldest days, tighter grid conditions, and regional price premiums. Gas pipelines serving the Northeast hit their limits in deep cold, and when they do, power prices move fast.

For businesses, that translates into a simple timing problem:

• Suppliers price winter risk into offers as the season approaches
• Waiting for "certainty" often means paying for the volatility you were waiting out
• Renewal quotes locked before demand season tend to carry less built-in risk premium
• Facilities with gas-fired equipment or dual-fuel flexibility have more options worth pricing now

None of this means panicking. It means the window where you have leverage is earlier than the window where you feel the cold.

Cheap gas won't save your winter bill. Two very different cost signals are moving at once.

The fuel side looks comfortable: Henry Hub is near $2.77/MMBtu, storage hit 3,785 Bcf for the week ending October 18, an 80 Bcf injection above the five-year average. EIA expects a warmer-than-normal winter in the Northeast.

The reliability side tells another story:

• PJM's 2028/29 capacity auction cleared at the $325/MW-day cap and still fell 6,831 MW short of the reliability requirement
• In the uncapped simulation, the modeled price was $554.72/MW-day (ComEd at $776.69): not the cleared price, but a window into the tightness
• PJM's Q1 2026 market monitor shows total wholesale power costs up 75.5% year over year, with the capacity component up 398.1%
• Data-center load growth is identified as the primary driver of tight capacity-market conditions

The cost question is still unsettled. FERC suspended PJM's Reliability Backstop Procurement on September 29; PJM plans to refile by October 29, with a proposed bid window of March 1-22, 2027 and a $555/MW-day procurement cap.

New Jersey's BPU already attributes estimated residential bill increases of $22.67-$28.02 per month to PJM capacity prices. Residential benchmarks, not commercial forecasts, but they show how reliability costs land on bills regardless of what gas does.

What to do with this:

• Check contract dates at every location, including notice deadlines
• Review 12-24 months of usage and interval data
• Compare offers on consistent assumptions: term, load profile, what each price covers
• Consider fixed-price supply where budget certainty matters

Both signals can be true at once: cheap fuel, and a grid that costs more to keep reliable.

Shoulder season is the cheapest time to fix your demand charges.

Once heating season starts, your winter peaks set your demand charges, capacity tag and sometimes next year's rates. Right now, in late October, most NJ and NY facilities are running lighter loads and have room to test changes before the cold snap makes every kWh count.

A short checklist before winter arrives:

• Re-stage equipment schedules so big loads don't all start at 8 AM
• Confirm HVAC setpoints and blackout windows for peak hours
• Check that interval meter data matches what your supplier quotes
• Walk the building for vampire loads, things running nights and weekends
• Note your current demand peak so you can measure every change

Small changes now are easy. The same changes in January happen at your most expensive hours.

NJ & NY businesses: the next PJM capacity auction clears in December 2026, and the 2028/29 auction already hit its price cap while falling short of the reliability requirement.

What that means for your renewal: if your contract expires in 2027 or beyond, capacity exposure is a real line item. Utilities and suppliers price it into your supply rate, and your facility's location, load shape and contract term change how much of it you carry.

Three things worth checking this week:
• Contract expiration dates and what period each quote covers
• Whether capacity costs are bundled or broken out in your supply rate
• How your demand and usage trend could affect charges tied to your capacity tag

Gas prices are sitting still. Your power bill isn't.

On October 13 at 6 p.m., real-time electricity in PJM's BGE zone cleared at $2,370.65/MWh while Western Hub sat at $1,770.05/MWh. That $600.60/MWh gap was largely congestion: about $548.90/MWh, or 91.4% of the difference, with the energy component identical at both locations.

That's one real-time hour, not what every PJM customer paid. But it makes the point: a calm commodity market doesn't mean a calm delivery grid.

The bigger picture is just as telling:
• PJM on-peak wholesale power averaged $73.06/MWh in September, roughly 59% higher year over year
• Mid-October, about 62,000 MW of generation was offline for planned maintenance while hot weather held on
• PJM's 2028/29 capacity auction cleared at the $325/MW-day cap and still fell 6,831.3 MW short of the reliability requirement
• Henry Hub's 2027 strip sat near $3.13/MMBtu, comparatively quiet

So why does this matter at renewal? Because congestion shows up as locational basis, and basis differs by zone. Two facilities in the same portfolio can carry very different exposure.

Before your next renewal:
• Confirm the utility territory and PJM zone for every meter
• Check expiration dates and the period being quoted
• Compare interval usage, especially at peak
• Ask how each proposal reflects your location and load shape
• Evaluate sites individually instead of assuming one strategy fits all

A few winter peak-demand days can shape your facility’s capacity costs for an entire year. ⚡

In PJM, winter heating-season peaks help determine your PLC tag, and that tag affects capacity charges from June 2027 through May 2028. With PJM’s 2027/28 capacity clearing near $333.44/MW-day, shaving peaks is a financial decision, not just an operations decision.

The time to plan is before the cold snap, not after the bill arrives. Energy Tracker Pro peak alerts can help your team stay aware of potential peaks, while a usage-based strategy can help identify opportunities to manage demand.
