PJM Interconnection will raise its minimum capitalization threshold to $2 million for wholesale electricity market participants in the United States. The proposal marks the first update to these financial requirements since 2011. Higher capital buffers aim to shield the grid operator from participant defaults as energy market volatility persists.
