Creates new boards to improve how we predict electricity needs, aiming for more reliable and affordable power for customers.
This bill would create regional boards to study how electric companies predict future electricity needs. These boards would find the best ways to forecast demand, which could lead to more dependable and cheaper electricity for homes and businesses. States would then need to consider and use these new best practices.
Currently, there are no specific federal rules requiring the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to create regional boards to study how electric companies predict future power needs. There are also no explicit federal standards under existing laws that mandate electric companies to use specific best practices for forecasting, or for states to include these in their energy conservation plans. If this bill becomes law, FERC would establish regional boards to identify best practices for forecasting. These recommendations would then become a new federal standard that state utility regulators would need to consider and implement for regulated electric companies, and states would have to update their energy conservation plans to improve forecasting.
