RFC was formed by the merger of the Mid-Atlantic Area Council (MAAC), the East Central Area Reliability Coordination Electric Power Outlook for Pennsylvania 2008-2013 3
Agreement (ECAR) and the Mid-America Interconnected Network Inc. (MAIN). RFC is one of eight regional councils of NERC and serves the states of Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. RFC became operational on January 1, 2006. See Figure 1.2. Figure 1.2 ReliabilityFirst Territory RFC sets forth the criteria which individual utilities and systems must follow in planning adequate levels of generating capability. Among the factors which are considered in establishing these levels are load characteristics, load forecast error, scheduled maintenance requirements and the forced outage rates of generating units. The RFC reliability standards require that sufficient generating capacity be installed to ensure that the probability of system load exceeding available capacity is no greater than one day in 10 years. Load serving entities that are members of RFC have a capacity obligation determined by evaluating individual system load characteristics, unit size and operating characteristics. There have been no enforcement actions against any Pennsylvania RFC members since the expansion of NERC’s new authority. 12 12 See http://www.nerc.com/filez/enforcement/index.html. 4 Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission
