FERC orders PJM to craft large load colocation rules
- •FERC has directed PJM to develop specific rules for the colocation of large power loads with generation facilities.
- •This regulatory change is viewed as a positive development for independent power producers (IPPs) operating gas-fired and nuclear plants in the PJM region.
- •The new colocation rules are expected to create streamlined power supply options for large consumers (e.g., datacenters) and new revenue streams for colocated generators, potentially impacting interconnection and transmission dynamics.
