FERC / NARUC Competitive Procurement Collaborative
Comments by the COMPETE Coalition
FERC and NARUC have demonstrated leadership in addressing the issues confronting competitive procurement of electricity resources. With an estimated $1.5 trillion in new electricity infrastructure needed to meet demand in the next 20 years, the discipline and transparency of competitive markets are essential to ensuring that we meet this challenge, and meet it with the wisest use of our resources. The study identifies key principles and it is a valuable foundation for the important work that lies ahead, as competitive procurement will surely be a critical tool in meeting the rising demand for electricity.
