Electric Reliability Needs Climate Issues Certainty

摘要

Initiatives to address climate change and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions could prove to be among the most important issues facing the bulk power system supply in Canada and the United States over the coming years.rn"Provisions and requirements implemented through state/provincial-level renewable portfolio standards (RPS), regional initiatives and federal and provincial legislation and regulations, have the potential to influence nearly every aspect of electric industry system planning, design and operation going forward," said Mark Lauby, manager of assessments for the North AmericanReliability Corporation (NERC).
