2025 Independent release

The release planning process assesses market initiative implementation impacts to determine target timeframes, project milestones and other resource considerations. It is a collaborative process between the ISO and market participants to optimize the costs and benefits of the implementation approach prior to committing resources. 

A majority of the market initiatives start as policy initiatives and can be found on the Policy Initiatives page.  This area is reserved for projects that are part of 2025 Independent release that do not have a corresponding policy initiative page.
