Real-Time Information Networks and Standards of Conduct; Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Samenvatting

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission proposes to amend its regulations to add Part 37 containing rules establishing and governing real-time information networks (RINs) and prescribing standards of conduct. Under this proposal, each public utility (or its agent) that owns and/or controls facilities used for the transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce would be required to create and/or participate in a RIN that would provide wholesale transmission customers and potential wholesale transmission customers with electronically provided information on available wholesale transmission capacity, prices, and other information that will enable them to obtain open access non-discriminatory transmission service.
