Key facts

Data-center backstop capacity auction delayed (reported, Sep 2026)

Reported (reported): on Sep 30 2026 Utility Dive reported PJM Interconnection is delaying its planned reliability backstop procurement auction for data-center-driven capacity shortfall after FERC on Sep 29 only partly approved the framework. PJM spokesman Jeffrey Shields said the auction that had been set to accept offers Sep 30 through Oct 21 is delayed; a new timeline is yet to be determined; PJM is reviewing the order and intends to address remaining FERC concerns on cost allocation, transmission-owner exit rules, and load-serving entity collateral. PJM had aimed to acquire about 6.8 GW of new capacity tied to a shortfall from the 2028/29 capacity auction. Cap: trade press quoting PJM spokesman + FERC order summary; not a PJM-hosted primary filing page fetched this pass. Interconnection / who-pays bottleneck, not a chip story
