Today’s LiveWire Spotlight looks at NERC’s response to FERC’s Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANOPR) looking to overhaul regional transmission planning, cost allocation, and generator interconnection procedures. The ERO generally supports the Commission’s willingness to explore new strategies to better coordinate regional transmission planning – and actually suggests two modifications to FERC’s pro forma interconnection agreements to best assure BES reliability as the system goes green.
Dozens of comments to FERC’s ANOPR on regional transmission planning, cost allocation, and generator interconnection were received prior to the October 12 due date. Clients looking to submit Reply Comments to the Commission have until November 9 to do so.
