2022-25717. Establishing Interregional Transfer Capability Transmission Planning and Cost Allocation Requirements; Supplemental Notice of Staff-Led Workshop

As announced in the Notice of Staff-Led Workshop issued in this proceeding on October 6, 2022, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) staff will convene a workshop to discuss whether and how the Commission could establish a minimum requirement for Interregional Transfer Capability for public utility transmission providers in transmission planning and cost allocation processes on December 5 and 6, 2022, from approximately 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

The purpose of this workshop is to consider the question of whether and how to establish a minimum requirement for Interregional Transfer Capability. Topics for discussion may include: how to determine the need for and benefit of setting a minimum requirement for Interregional Transfer Capability; what to consider in establishing a potential Interregional Transfer Capability requirement, including who would be responsible for determining a minimum Interregional Transfer Capability requirement and what would be the objective and drivers of such a requirement; what process could be used in establishing a minimum Interregional Transfer Capability requirement to determine key data inputs, modeling techniques, and relevant metrics; and how costs for transmission facilities intended to increase Interregional Transfer Capability should be allocated and how to ensure a minimum amount of Interregional Transfer Capability is achieved and maintained.
