On July 21st, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission issued Order No. 1000, the Final Rule on Transmission Planning and Cost Allocation, amending the transmission planning and cost allocation requirements established in Order No. 890. Through the Final Rule, the Commission:

  • requires public utility transmission providers to participate in a regional transmission planning process and produce a regional transmission plan;
  • requires public utility transmission providers to amend their OATTs to describe how public policy requirements will be considered in local and regional transmission planning processes;
  • removes the federal right of first refusal for certain transmission facilities; and
  • seeks to improve coordination between neighboring transmission planning regions for interregional facilities.
