Commissioner Chang’s concurrence – New York Independent System Operator, Inc.
Source: FERCFERC says in these orders that it has initiated FPA section 206 proceedings to examine large-load growth and possible tariff reforms that could change how loads “procure, use, and pay for transmission service.” It also says it is launching an inquiry into cost shifting, including possible requirements to publish information on new large loads, upgrades, and costs, and to adopt a pro forma cost recovery agreement. FERC further says tariffs lack clear provisions for evaluating alternative transmission technologies, and that the Commission preliminarily would extend PJM co-location transmission services such as “Interim NITS, Firm Contract Demand, and Non-Firm Contract Demand” to new loads and regions.
