- NERC ERATF Industry Workshop – Q/A Document Posted
The Energy Reliability Assessment Task Force (ERATF) held an industry workshop on February 16, 2022 to discuss the key findings and recommendations from a technical paper written by the members of the ERATF. Panelists discussed energy assurance issues in the operations, operational planning, and planning time horizons. In addition, attendees were given the opportunity to provide comments for the development of a final Standard Authorization Request (SAR) for Reliability and Security Technical Committee (RSTC) consideration. Due to time restraints some questions were unable to be addressed during the call, so the ERATF has provided a Q&A document to answer those questions.
