A summary of issues discussed and measures approved by the PJM Planning Committee and Transmission Expansion Advisory Committee on June 9, 2016.

Stakeholders ask FERC to revisit its ruling approving solution-based DFAX cost allocation for the Artificial Island and Bergen-Linden Corridor projects.

FERC reassured LS Power  that its plan to base some of its interstate administrative and operational activities in its Austin, Texas, office won’t trigger commission jurisdiction over ERCOT.

FERC granted LS Power subsidiary Northeast Transmission Development some incentives for its Artificial Island project.

PSE&G sent a letter to the PJM board, defending the cost estimate for its share of the Artificial Island project.

PJM planners are rethinking a piece of the Artificial Island project, a move that could possibly require the RTO to solicit new bids.

PJM stands by its selection of the PSE&G project, which involves building a new transmission line from the Artificial Island nuclear complex in NJ to DE.

FERC approved an incentive filing by PJM that will allow PSE&G to recoup all of its costs if the Artificial Island reliability project is canceled due to reasons beyond the company’s control.

Reversing a prior decision, FERC ruled that PJM transmission owners should pay all of the cost of projects that solely address a TO’s local planning criteria.

Transmission developer LS Power is protesting Order 1000 compliance filings by NYISO, SPP and ISO-NE, saying they still favor regulated incumbents over independent developers.
