Competitive transmission improvements

This initiative will consider improvements that support competition in the ISO transmission planning process for approved project sponsors who are non-participating transmission owners. The ISO is also proposing a new project sponsor application deposit to help mitigate costs incurred while performing and administering the competitive solicitation process.

 

Outcome

The ISO implemented new tariff language that: 1) permits approved project sponsors who are not participating transmission owners to recover FERC authorized transmission revenue requirements for projects under construction prior to turning over the facilities to ISO operational control; 2) clarifies that approved project sponsors who are not participating transmission owners and have existing transmission assets will be required to turn over operational control to the ISO only for project they were selected to build; and 3) establishes a project sponsor application deposit.
