Dear Ms. Perotti, Mr. Rigaud, and Ms. Crawford:

    1. On November 4, 2024, the North American Electric Reliability 
Corporation (NERC), the Commission-certified Electric Reliability 
Organization, submitted three petitions seeking approval of: (1) a 
proposed definition of an inverter-based resource (IBR) for inclusion 
in the NERC Glossary of Terms Used in NERC Reliability Standards (NERC 
Glossary); \1\ (2) proposed Reliability Standards PRC-028-1 
(Disturbance Monitoring and Reporting Requirements for Inverter-Based 
Resources) and PRC-002-5 (Disturbance Monitoring and Reporting 
Requirements); \2\ and (3) proposed Reliability Standard PRC-030-1 
(Unexpected Inverter-Based Resource Event Mitigation).\3\ NERC also 
requested approval of the associated implementation plans, violation 
risk factors, and violation severity levels, as well as the retirement 
of currently effective Reliability Standard PRC-002-4. For the reasons 
discussed below, pursuant to section 215(d)(2) of the Federal Power Act 
(FPA),\4\ we grant the requested approvals.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ NERC Petition, Docket No. RD25-1-000 (NERC IBR Definition 
Petition).
    \2\ NERC Petition, Docket No. RD25-2-000 (NERC PRC-028-1 
Petition).
    \3\ NERC Petition, Docket No. RD25-3-000 (NERC PRC-030-1 
Petition).
    \4\ 16 U.S.C. 824o.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2. In Order No. 901, pursuant to section 215(d)(5) of the FPA, the 
Commission directed NERC to submit new or modified Reliability 
Standards to, among other things, address disturbance monitoring data 
sharing, performance requirements, and post-event performance 
validation for registered IBRs.\5\ The Commission directed NERC to 
consider the burden on IBR owners to collect and provide data collected 
by disturbance monitoring equipment while assuring that Bulk-Power 
System operators and planners have the data they need for accurate 
disturbance monitoring and analysis.\6\ The Commission also directed 
NERC to submit new or modified Reliability Standards that ``require 
generator owners to communicate to the relevant planning coordinators, 
transmission planners, reliability coordinators, transmission 
operators, and balancing authorities the actual post-disturbance ramp 
rates.'' \7\ The Commission directed NERC to submit new or modified 
Reliability Standards addressing these directives to the Commission no 
later than November 4, 2024.\8\

    3. In the IBR Definition Petition, NERC proposes to define an IBR 
as ``[a] plant/facility consisting of individual devices that are 
capable of exporting Real Power through a power electronic interface(s) 
such as an inverter or converter, and that are operated together as a 
single resource at a common point of interconnection to the electric 
system.'' \9\ NERC explains that while developing its proposed IBR 
definition, it considered the Institute of Electrical and Electronics 
Engineers (IEEE) 2800-2022 IBR definition, as well as other IBR 
definitions identified in various NERC and Commission documents.\10\ 
According to NERC, the ``capable of exporting real power'' phrase in 
the proposed IBR definition clarifies that IBRs are considered 
generation resources that provide real power to load.\11\ NERC states 
that the proposed IBR definition will promote consistency in the 
application of Reliability Standards, help avoid confusion, and 
facilitate efficiency for future standards drafting teams when 
addressing outstanding IBR issues. NERC's proposed implementation plan 
states that the proposed IBR definition would become effective on the 
first day of the first calendar quarter after Commission approval.\12\

are not limited to plants/facilities with solar photovoltaic (PV),

``generating resource'' and ``generation resource'' interchangeably.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    4. In the NERC PRC-028-1 Petition, NERC explains that proposed 
Reliability Standards PRC-028-1 and PRC-002-5 comply in part with the 
Commission's directives in Order No. 901 regarding disturbance 
monitoring requirements for IBRs \13\ and would improve reliability by 
ensuring the availability of data from synchronous generating resources 
and IBRs necessary to facilitate the analysis of disturbances on the 
Bulk-Power System.\14\ NERC states that although Reliability Standard 
PRC-002-4 generally serves the purpose of capturing event data to 
analyze system disturbances, the disturbance monitoring requirements of 
the existing Standard do not apply to many IBRs, given their technical 
and operational characteristics.\15\ NERC explains that proposed 
Reliability Standard PRC-028-1 would address this reliability gap by 
extending disturbance monitoring and reporting requirements to all IBRs 
that are or will be subject to the Reliability Standards.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ NERC states that proposed Reliability Standard PRC-028-1 
does not address the Commission's Order No. 901 directive regarding 
the validation of registered IBR models using disturbance monitoring 
data, which NERC intends to address during Milestone 3 of its Order 
No. 901 Work Plan. See NERC PRC-028-1 Petition at 35-36.

    5. Proposed Reliability Standard PRC-028-1 applies to generator 
owners that own bulk-electric system IBRs, as well as generator owners 
that own non-bulk electric system IBRs that NERC will register under 
NERC's registry criteria for IBR generator owners and generator 
operators.\17\ The proposed Standard would require applicable entities 
to install disturbance monitoring equipment on their IBRs in order to 
collect sequence of event recording, fault recording, and dynamic 
disturbance recording data.\18\ NERC explains that data collected under 
the proposed Standard would be used to evaluate IBR ride-through 
performance during system disturbances and provide data for IBR model 
validation to assist operators and planners in better accounting for 
IBR performance in the future.\19\ Additionally, the proposed Standard 
would require IBR generator owners to address failures of disturbance 
monitoring recording capabilities by either restoring function within 
specified timeframes or submitting corrective action plans indicating 
how and when recording capabilities would be restored.\20\

    6. Proposed Reliability Standard PRC-002-5 would replace 
Reliability Standard PRC-002-4 and clarify its applicability to non-IBR 
bulk electric system elements.\21\ Further, proposed Reliability 
Standard PRC-002-5 adds data collection and sharing requirements, as 
well as data formatting requirements, similar to those in proposed 
Reliability Standard PRC-028-1.\22\

    7. NERC describes its proposed implementation plan for Reliability 
Standards PRC-028-1 and PRC-002-5 as ``a risk-based, phased-in 
compliance approach'' that would require generator owners to implement 
disturbance monitoring equipment by no later than 2030.\23\ NERC 
further proposes a process by which generator owners may request an 
extension to implementation deadlines because of potential constraints 
outside of a generator owner's control, such as supply chain 
delays.\24\

    8. The NERC PRC-030-1 Petition explains that proposed Reliability 
Standard PRC-030-1 was developed as part of a set of Reliability 
Standards in response to directives in Order No. 901 to develop 
requirements that address IBR ride-through settings and performance, 
data recording, and analysis and mitigation of unexpected IBR 
performance.\25\ The purpose of proposed Reliability Standard PRC-030-1 
is to ``[i]dentify, analyze, and mitigate unexpected [IBR] change of 
power output.'' \26\ The proposed Reliability Standard covers both bulk 
electric system IBRs and non-bulk electric system IBRs \27\ and is 
applicable to generator owners that own: (1) IBRs that meet the bulk 
electric system definition criteria, and (2) non-bulk electric system 
IBRs that NERC will register in accordance with its Rules of 
Procedure.\28\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ See NERC PRC-030-1 Petition at 1; see also Order No. 901, 
185 FERC ] 61,042 at P 208.
    \26\ NERC PRC-030-1 Petition at 16.
    \27\ Applicable non-bulk electric system IBRs include those non-
bulk electric system IBRs that either have or contribute to an 
aggregate nameplate capacity of greater than or equal to 20 MVA, 
connected through a system designed primarily for delivering such 
capacity to a common point of connection at a voltage greater than 
or equal to 60 kV. See id. at 17, 32.
    \28\ See N. Am. Elec. Reliability Corp., 183 FERC ] 61,116, at P 
52 (2023) (citing Registration of Inverter-based Res., 181 FERC ] 
61,124, at P 33 (2022) (directing NERC to ensure IBR owners and 
operators are registered and required to comply with applicable 
Reliability Standards within 36 months of Commission approval of the 
NERC Registration Work Plan (May 18, 2026))).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    9. Proposed Reliability Standard PRC-030-1 requires applicable 
entities to implement a documented process for the identification of 
any ``complete facility loss of output or certain changes of real power 
output'' and contains both thresholds \29\ for identification and 
exclusions from identification measures.\30\ Further, the Standard 
requires applicable entities in certain circumstances to conduct and 
report, if requested, an analysis of a real power change event.\31\ 
When identified as necessary by the required analysis, a generator 
owner must develop and implement a corrective action plan to address 
performance issues or provide a technical justification \32\ as to why 
corrective actions will not be implemented.\33\ Proposed PRC-030-1 
further requires generator owners to update corrective action plans if 
corrective actions or schedules change, and notify associated 
reliability coordinators of completion of or changes to the corrective 
action plan. According to NERC, proposed PRC-030-1 is responsive to the 
Commission's directive in Order No. 901 requiring NERC to develop 
Reliability Standards that require generator owners to communicate 
actual post-disturbance ramp rates to relevant planning coordinators, 
transmission planners, reliability coordinators, transmission 
operators, and balancing authorities.\34\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \29\ Proposed Reliability Standard PRC-030-1 establishes a 
minimum threshold of at least 20 MW and at least 10% of the plant's 
gross nameplate rating, occurring within a four second period, that 
NERC states would make the self-identification of events manageable 
for both small and large facilities. See NERC PRC-030-1 Petition at 
19.

Power that are excluded from the identification requirements in 
Requirement R1 because they are anticipated with normal operations 
or expected responses).
    \31\ Id. at 22-24.
    \32\ Primary characteristics of an acceptable technical 
justification for not performing corrective actions include 
``interconnection requirements on IBR performance extending beyond 
those in place at the time of interconnection'' and corrective 
actions would require significant material modifications or a 
qualified change. See id. at 26.
    \33\ Id. at 24.
    \34\ See Order No. 901, 185 FERC ] 61,042 at P 208.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    10. NERC's proposed implementation plan states that proposed 
Reliability Standard PRC-030-1 will become effective on the later of 
the first day of the first calendar quarter that is 12 months after the 
effective date of the Commission's order approving (1) Reliability 
Standard PRC-030-1 or (2) Reliability Standard PRC-029-1 (Frequency and 
Voltage Ride-through Requirements for Inverter-Based Generating 
Resources).\35\ NERC's proposed implementation plan further provides a 
phased-in compliance approach where bulk electric system IBRs must 
comply with all four requirements of Reliability Standard PRC-030-1 no 
later than the effective date of the Standard. Applicable non-bulk 
electric system IBRs must comply with all four requirements by the 
later of January 1, 2027, or the effective date of Reliability Standard 
PRC-030-1. NERC asserts that this phased-in implementation approach 
satisfies the Commission's directive in Order No. 901 for all directed 
Reliability Standards to be effective and enforceable prior to 
2030.\36\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    11. Notice of NERC's three November 4, 2024, petitions were 
published in the Federal Register, 89 FR 88993 (Nov. 12, 2024), with 
interventions and protests due on or before December 4, 2024. Calpine 
Corporation, North Carolina Electric Membership Corporation, Solar 
Energy Industries Association, American Clean Power Association, Orsted 
Wind Power North America LLC, Invenergy Renewables, LLC, Dominion 
Energy Virginia, Eversource Energy Service Company, and RENEW 
Northeast, Inc. all filed timely motions to intervene in all or one of 
the dockets

[[Page 10719]]

addressed in this order. Pursuant to Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules 
of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.214 (2024), the timely, unopposed 
motions to intervene serve to make the entities that filed them parties 
to the proceedings in which they were filed. No comments or protests 
were submitted in any of the three dockets.
    12. Pursuant to section 215(d)(2) of the FPA, we approve the 
proposed IBR definition for inclusion in the NERC Glossary, as well as 
proposed Reliability Standards PRC-028-1, PRC-002-5, and PRC-030-1, as 
just and reasonable and not unduly discriminatory or preferential and 
in the public interest.\37\ We also approve the proposed Reliability 
Standards' associated violation risk factors and violation severity 
levels, as well as the proposed implementation plans. Finally, we 
approve the retirement of Reliability Standard PRC-002-4 immediately 
prior to the effective date of proposed Reliability Standard PRC-002-5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \37\ 16 U.S.C. 824o(d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    13. We determine that the proposed IBR definition and proposed 
Reliability Standards PRC-028-1, PRC-002-5, and PRC-030-1 satisfy many 
of the Commission's relevant directives from Order No. 901 to establish 
performance requirements and requirements for sharing disturbance 
monitoring data and post-disturbance ramp rates for registered 
IBRs.\38\ Given the increase in the amount of IBRs connecting to the 
Bulk-Power System, as well as the importance of the new IBR definition 
and Reliability Standards PRC-028-1 and PRC-030-1 to maintaining the 
reliable operation of the Bulk-Power System, we strongly encourage 
entities that are capable of complying earlier than the mandatory and 
enforceable date to do so.

Information Collection Statement

    14. The FERC-725G information collection requirements are subject 
to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under section 
3507(d) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. OMB's regulations 
require approval of certain information collection requirements imposed 
by agency rules. Upon approval of a collection of information, OMB will 
assign an OMB control number and expiration date. Respondents subject 
to the filing requirements will not be penalized for failing to respond 
to these collections of information unless the collections of 
information display a valid OMB control number. The Commission solicits 
comments on the need for this information, whether the information will 
have practical utility, the accuracy of the burden estimates, ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected or retained, and any suggested methods for minimizing 
respondents' burden, including the use of automated information 
techniques.
    15. The Commission bases its paperwork burden estimates on the 
additional paperwork burden presented by the proposed revisions to 
Reliability Standard PRC-002-5 and new Reliability Standards PRC-028-1 
and PRC-030-1. The new glossary term Inverter-Based Resource (IBR) is 
not expected to generate any new burden as it is a definition used 
within the body of Reliability Standards. Reliability Standards are 
objective-based and allow entities to choose compliance approaches best 
tailored to their systems. As of November 20, 2024, the NERC Compliance 
Registry identified 12 reliability coordinators, 325 transmission 
owners, and 1,238 generator owners as unique U.S. entities that are 
subject to mandatory compliance with Reliability Standard PRC-002-5. 
Additionally, these entities will have additional burdens given that 
the revisions to Reliability Standard PRC-002-5 will focus on 
synchronous generation and updates to SER, FR, and DDR data being 
supplied to the reliability coordinator, regional entity, or NERC. 
Burden estimates for the unique U.S. entities for new PRC-028-1 and 
PRC-030-1 are taken from numbers supplied by NERC, with 591 registered 
generator owners that own bulk electric system solar and wind 
facilities and a median 755 generator owners that own non bulk electric 
system facilities. Based on these assumptions, we estimate the 
following reporting burden:
