Black Start Service: NERC CIP Options and Capital Cost Recovery - 2010 Issues

This issue concerns several NERC CIP issues pertinent to black start generation owners. Schedule 6A revenue requirements include costs incurred as a result of a NERC compliance standard similar to the CIP standards. A revised BSSWG Charter includes additional scope, to be concluded by June 2010, to explore:
  • Proposals for unit owners to use the energy capability of units in the Formula rate
  • Proposals to allow for an annual Automated Formula Rate Adjustments for CONE through PJM settlements (rather than a resubmission)
  • Proposal to make CIP costs additive to existing rates in a matter which address FERC concerns raised in order
  • Proposals to review tariff language for 2 year rolling commitments and propose appropriate changes which address FERC concerns presented in order
  • Proposal to eliminate Accelerated CRF refund for FERC rates (which addresses FERC concerns in order)
  • Proposed Timeline
