Recent Developments in Standards Drafting
“Accelerated Standards Transition”
• Message from August 14: need for clear and measurable
standards:
– US/Canada TF Report Recommendation 25
– FERC Reliability Policy Order
• Multiple sets of ‘reliability rules’ and processes
– Operating policies, planning standards, compliance templates, new
standards
– Industry volunteer resources spread too thin
• Consensus on new standards takes time
• Need to ensure reliability continuity
