Quehubo007, So the blame game begins. A buddhist monk once said to me that "It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness." In that vein, a better idea would be to draft a rational statewide energy policy in California rather than pointing fingers.....Redesigning Cal ISO will accomplish essentially "zero"- just motion without progress.

Cal ISO should have notified Mssr. Davis of the FERC petition. But if the Pacific Northwest consumers will pay $500/megawatt hour, should Cal ISO stand idly by and let the State and its industry plunge into darkness?

The $250 cap was put into place by Mssr Davis in order that Mssr. Davis would look "effective" to voters in dealing with the energy situation. Problem is, the price is not realistic when markets prices rise.

You can't have it both ways, cut out basic industries and still expect a high standard of living....Again which is most important to California's citizens?
