BHE Montana committed to join the California ISO-managed Extended Day-Ahead Market (EDAM) in 2028, marking the eighth participant. This regional market expands efficient planning and scheduling of electricity resources one day ahead, improving cost savings, reliability, and access to cleaner energy across Western US grids.

Western utilities joining the EDAM show power markets are shifting toward wider regional coordination and day-ahead planning. If you build power market technologies or grid services, this opens new customer opportunities in a growing multi-state market.
