[Docket No. RM21-17-000]
Building for the Future Through Electric Regional Transmission
Planning and Cost Allocation and Generator Interconnection; Notice of
Technical Conference
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) will convene
a staff-led technical conference regarding regional transmission
planning in the above-referenced proceeding on Monday, November 15,
2021, from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The
technical conference will seek to examine in detail issues and
potential reforms related to regional transmission planning as
described in the July 15, 2021 Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
in this proceeding.\1\ Specifically, the technical conference will
examine issues related to incorporating sufficiently long-term and
comprehensive forecasts of future transmission needs during regional
transmission planning processes, including considering the needs of
anticipated future generation in identifying needed transmission
facilities. This may include: approaches to planning regional
transmission facilities that identify transmission needs for
anticipated future generation, e.g., use in regional transmission
planning of future scenarios or geographic zones where future
generation is anticipated to locate; factors shaping future
transmission needs that are appropriate to consider as inputs into
transmission planning studies; and evaluation criteria used by the
transmission planning regions to identify and select the more efficient
or cost-effective regional transmission facilities.
