Shell seeks FERC assistance to squash GreenHat Energy’s lawsuit in Texas court

摘要

Shell Energy North America has asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to step in to help resolve a breach-of-contract claim GreenHat Energy brought against it in a Texas state court. Shell is looking to FERC to interpret PJM Interconnection’s rules for bilateral transfers of financial transmission rights to debunk GreenHat’s “extraordinary claim that entering data into PJM’s platform for reporting FTR transfers created additional separate, binding contracts, which Shell Energy allegedly breached,” according to the petition for declaratory order (EL20-49) recently filed with FERC.
