Special Webinar on State Jurisdictional Project & ASO Study coordination with FERC Order 2023
Following discussions at the July VSPC meeting, we invite you to join a webinar on September 13th, from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM to delve deeper into how Affected System Operator (ASO) Studies for non-Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) jurisdictional distributed generation (DG) projects will be coordinated with the cluster studies required under FERC’s Order No. 2023. While FERC will evaluate certain regional variations in interconnection procedures, complying with the Order requires significant changes to the manner in which ISO-New England administers the transmission interconnection processes and how interconnection customers are expected to participate in those processes.
Brad Marszalkowski, Supervisor of Resource Integration at ISO-New England will present the ISO-NE's recently RC approved study process and answer questions. Given the potential for process changes, we encourage your attendance to ensure timely feedback and coordination.
Meeting Highlights:
- Brief Overview of FERC Order 2023 and its implications
- Review of I.3.9 requirements
- ISO-NE's New ASO study process
- Q&A session
Registration:
Please register here by September 11. You'll receive a confirmation email with the Zoom meeting details upon registration. The webinar will be recorded and posted to the VSPC website for those who are unable to participate during the scheduled time.
VSPC October 2024 Quarterly Meeting
Meeting Location: TBD
Planning for the Future of Vermont's Electrical Grid
The VSPC plays a key role in the planning process for Vermont’s electric transmission system. This planning process is designed to facilitate the full, fair, and timely consideration of cost effective non-transmission alternatives. The process involves coordination among Vermont’s utilities, transparency to the public about planning activities, and opportunities for public involvement.
VSPC Membership
Membership of the VSPC includes representatives of each Vermont electric distribution utility and transmission utility, each energy efficiency utility, and four public members, each of whom represents the interest of one of the following groups: residential consumers, commercial and industrial consumers, environmental protection, and town and regional planning commissions.
