Morning Reliability Roundtable
Changes to NERC Reliability Assessments and Why They Matter to Policymakers


Driven by new technology, evolving policy, and rising demand, the bulk power system is expanding and transforming at a pace not seen since its creation. As the grid changes, NERC long-term reliability assessments are undertaking a complimentary transformation — moving from capacity-based adequacy toward a more holistic, probabilistic, and scenario-driven approach. Join NERC, MRO, and leaders in government and industry for a panel discussion on the modernization of NERC’s reliability assessments and their use in policy decision-making, the evolving challenges shaping electric reliability across North America, and how the public and private sector can work together to effectively mitigate risks to support a reliable and resilient bulk power system.


Panelists:

· Sara Patrick, President & CEO, MRO

· Tricia DeBleeckere, Executive Director, Organization of MISO States

· Fritz Hirst, Vice President – Government Affairs, NERC

· Josh Byrnes, Commissioner, Iowa Utilities Commission
