Speakers at a workshop hosted by Texas RE reminded attendees that compliance with NERC's Critical Infrastructure Protection standards is not enough to ensure security.

NERC asked FERC to deny a request to mandate studies on the grid's vulnerability to electromagnetic pulses and solar storms, saying its current reliability standards are sufficient.

FERC approved a settlement between Georgia Power and SERC Reliability that will see the utility pay $175,000 for violating NERC's reliability standards.

In a case of déjà vu, MISO announced that NERC is poised to issue a follow-up to its Long-Term Reliability Assessment that stands to lower the RTO’s reliability vulnerability from “high risk” to “elevated.”

NERC told FERC it only received a single report of a qualifying cybersecurity incident under reliability standard CIP-008-6.

FERC approved a slate of updates to NERC's Critical Infrastructure Protection standards intended to improve grid security while enabling the use of new technologies.

A new standards development project will be a testbed for some of the proposals by NERC's Modernization of Standards Processes and Procedures Task Force.

NERC CEO Jim Robb said in congressional testimony that while the bulk power system made it through the late January winter storm reliably, the weather highlighted how at risk it is.

Summarizing the findings from its 2025 Level 2 alert on large loads, NERC warned most entities have not met its recommendations.

NERC's Reliability and Security Technical Committee approved multiple technical documents while preparing for a higher-profile role in the standards development process.
