Expressed support for the Department of Energy (DOE) as the electric sectors SMRA. Discussed how the electric sector has strong mandatory and enforceable cyber and physical security standards, including cyber incident reporting, in place, and why cybersecurity standards and mandates must be risk-based. Discussed how strong industry-government partnerships should be supported to prevent, prepare for, and respond to cybersecurity attacks. Discussed how the federal government should play a greater role in helping electric utilities in assessing vendor cybersecurity practices, such as establishing a federal vendor certification or accreditation program. Discussed how Congress should refrain from imposing additional cyber incident reporting mandates until the Cybersecurity Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act (CIRCIA) is fully implemented. Provided feedback on H.R. 1160, the Critical Electric Infrastructure Cybersecurity Incident Reporting Act (all provisions). Discussed draft legislation to direct state public utility commissions to establish cybersecurity baselines for distribution utilities (no bill number).

Discussed industry-wide distribution transformer shortage and equipment supply chain challenges. Also discussed the need for more domestic production of electrical equipment. Discussed efforts at DOE to address the distribution transformer supply chain crisis, including President Bidens declaration to use the Defense Production Act. Discussed concerns with the DOEs proposed energy efficiency standards for distribution transformers (EERE-2019-BT-STD-0018) and how they would worsen the distribution transformer supply chain crisis. Discussed need for increased domestic manufacturing of equipment for electric utilities. Discussed H.R. 763, the Supply CHAINS Act, and if the legislation could help address the distribution transformer supply chain issue. Discussed draft legislation, the Protecting Americas Distribution Transformer Supply Chain Act, to prevent DOE from proposing or enacting new energy efficiency standards for distribution transformers for five years. Discussed public power utility access to additional funding for loans for renewable energy created under the Inflation Reduction Act (Pub. Law 117-169), section 22001. Discussed concerns with the DOEs draft guidance to implement section 247 (Maintaining and Enhancing Hydroelectric Incentives) in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA)(P.L. 117-58).

Discussed support for permitting reform to help expedite the construction of energy infrastructure (no bill), including changes to the National Environmental Policy Act and changes to the Federal Power Act to expedite the construction of transmission while not saddling public power utilities with transmission costs for which they receive no benefit. Provided feedback on draft legislation, the Clean Electricity Transmission Acceleration Act (all provisions), to direct FERC to determine the existing electricity transfer capacity between regions and to establish minimum levels of transfer capabilities between each region, and to require each transmission planning region to coordinate with its neighbors to plan for the required interregional transmission. Provided feedback on draft permitting reform legislation, the Building American Energy Security Act of 2023 (provisions on transmission). Provided feedback on draft legislation, the CHARGE Act, to promote transmission (all provisions). Discussed concerns with overly broad definitions of the benefits of transmission that would result in utilities and their customers paying for transmission projects from which they derive no benefit. Also discussed the importance of keeping costs affordable for customers. Discussed the importance of keeping rates affordable as new transmission infrastructure is developed. Discussed the importance of joint ownership opportunities for public power utilities as new transmission projects are being built. Discussed the importance of containing costs for customers for building new transmission to accommodate a changing resource mix and to promote reliability and resilience. Discussed concerns with language to set minimum interregional transfer capability between regions being included transmission legislation (no specific bill). Discussed the importance of permitting reform to help build clean energy infrastructure, which will reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Discussed public power programs to promote demand response.
