Project 2006-02
Assess Transmission Future Needs and Develop Transmission Plans

Related Files

Status:
The NERC Board of Trustees adopted the TPL-001-2 standard on August 4, 2011. The project was filed with FERC on October 19, 2011 and is awaiting a ruling.

Purpose/Industry Need:
The revisions to the following standards would improve technical clarity and address concerns identified by stakeholders and FERC: 

  • TPL-001 — System Performance under Normal Conditions

  • TPL-002 — System Performance Following Loss of a Single BES Element

  • TPL-003 — System Performance Following Loss of Two or More BES Elements

  • TPL-004 — System Performance Following Extreme BES Events

  • TPL-005 — Regional and Interregional Self-Assessment Reliability Reports

  • TPL-006 — Data from the Regional Reliability Organization Needed to Assess Reliability

The final SAR is to establish a standard for assessing and planning the transmission systems in North America.  The transmission system must be assessed and planned to ensure that it performs its intended functions in providing reliable delivery of power for the future needs of customers.
