Energy Investment Promoted.

Pacific Builder and Engineer, January, 2006

Staff The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has proposed transmission pricing reforms designed to promote needed investment in energy infrastructure. The proposed rules could benefit energy customers by bolstering power-grid reliability and lowering costs for delivered power by reducing transmission congestion, the commission said.

The recently enacted Energy Policy Act of 2005 directed the commission to develop incentive-based rate treatments for transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce. The proposal is designed to implement those incentives, provide regulatory certainty, and support expanded and improved transmission infrastructure while ensuring that transmission rates remain just and reasonable, the commission said.
