SPP state regulators have approved several motions related to FERC Order 1920’s mandate for long-term, scenario-based planning to ensure the system can meet future needs and be fairly compensated.

FERC can make large load flexibility a reality through the implementation of the Department of Energy’s Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on large load interconnections, according to a new Nicholas Institute policy paper.
