Summary
The 148th Delaware General Assembly opposes the decision of the PJM Interconnection to allocate the majority of the costs of the Artificial Island improvements to the residents and businesses of The First State. The PJM Interconnection actions in this matter appear to violate its operational guidelines to impose project costs to ratepayers that are roughly commensurate with the benefits they accrue from it. The 148th General Assembly supports the rehearing of this project to the Federal Energy Regulation Commission (FERC) and urges the FERC to reconsider its previous decision. Should this appeal fail, Delaware lawmakers support whatever further action may be required to resolve this dispute in a manner that is equitable for Delaware’s electricity consumers.
