Background
The NERC Reliability Standard MOD-031-3 seeks to “provide authority for applicable entities to collect Demand energy and related data to support reliability studies and assessments and to enumerate the responsibilities and obligations of requestors and respondents of that data." The SPIDERWG has recently recommended in the White Paper: SPIDERWG NERC Reliability Standards Review that MOD-031-3 should be revised to allow for the Planning Coordinator (PC) to obtain existing and forecasted distributed energy resource (DER) information from Distribution Provider (DP) and Transmission Planner (TP) entities. The White Paper further asserts that the TP should have the ability to act as an intermediary to provide data from DPs to the PC. This project's goal is to ensure that various forms of historical and forecast Demand, energy data, and information are available to the parties that perform reliability studies and assessments and provide the authority needed to collect the applicable data.
Standard Affected: MOD-031
