Ray, <<NYMEX has suspended power forwards contracts>>Haven't looked into it..does this imply a dismantling of risk shifting apparatus...I don't see that as a positive.
<<RTO's>>I'm sure there will be some painfull moments on the way to dregulation. My imperfect understanding is that we're heading towards an effective unbundling of transmission [to be overseen by RTO's] and generation, with prices to be set on the power by the market and the RTO's [natural monopoly] to be watched by the regulators. I have considerable confidence in Spence Abraham...a very smart guy...to make this as painless as possible, yet there will be bumps on the road.
I doubt turning back the clock is an option. You can argue loudly and perhaps persuasively for that, but methinks it's a waste of time [p*ssing in the wind] better spent positioning investments to sail with the wind.
