Background
NERC
initiated this project in January 2023 to implement the recommendations of the
Standards Process Stakeholder Engagement Group (SPSEG). The SPSEG was appointed
by NERC Board of Trustees Chair Ken DeFontes to make recommendations that would
improve the agility of NERC’s standard development processes to address urgent
reliability needs, while also maintaining reasonable notice and opportunity for
public comment, due process, openness, and balance of interests.
