Complimentary Event

Technological advances in inverter-based resources (IBR) are making a major impact on generation, transmission, and transmission systems. These resources, including solar photovoltaic resources, wind power, and battery storage, all provide challenges to bulk power system reliability.

FERC and NERC are both taking actions that will result in additional regulations for Generation Owners with IBRs, including a lower threshold for complying with NERC standards and requirements.

During this webinar, NERC compliance experts from HSI will examine the proposed changes, including who it will impact and how. 

This one-hour webinar will discuss:

  • Why generation resources should stop worrying about the threshold for meeting NERC compliance
  • Mechanics of compliance and what it means to generation resources
  • Suggestions and opportunities to maximize investments and minimize compliance efforts

Webinar attendees will gain an understanding of the time investment required to meet NERC compliance and how it can be readily folded into their daily activities.
