All rights reserved. EEI's State Restructuring Service is proud to present an Internet E-Forum providing an overview of the North American Electric Reliability Council's (NERC) recently released Reliability Assessment 2000-2009, the reliability of bulk electric systems in North America. The reliability of the electric generation and transmission systems serving North America has come under increased federal government, state regulator, and customer scrutiny. Generation capacity margins have decreased and the bulk electric systems are subjected to flows in magnitudes and directions not contemplated when they were designed or for which there is minimal operating experience. Each year, the Reliability Assessment Subcommittee (RAS) of the North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC) reviews the overall reliability of existing and planned electric generation and transmission systems in North America. This year's Reliability Assessment 2000-2009 report presents: *An assessment of electric generation and transmission reliability through 2009 *An assessment of the generation resource adequacy of each Interconnection in North America *A discussion of key issues affecting reliability of future electric supply *Regional assessments of electric supply reliability, including issues of specific Regional concern Presenting an overview of this year's Reliability Assessment is Frank J. Koza, Jr., Chairman, Reliability Assessment Subcommittee, and General Manager, Ventures, PECO Energy Company. Our guest moderator is Tim Gallagher, Mgr Technical Services, NERC To provide questions and commentary we have Jolly Hayden, Vice President of Transmission, Dynegy A copy of the Reliability Assessment 2000-2009 is available from the NERC web site at http://www.nerc.com/~pc/syscond.html.
