Guide to State Participation in PJM Long-Term Scenario Development under FERC Order No. 1920

The document outlines the requirements of FERC Order No. 1920, which mandates that transmission providers develop at least three diverse Long-Term Scenarios over a 20-year horizon to plan electric transmission. It emphasizes that state participation is critical for these scenarios to accurately reflect state policies and priorities, particularly within the PJM Interconnection LLC.

• FERC Order No. 1920 requires transmission providers to create a minimum of three diverse Long-Term Scenarios that project transmission needs over a 20-year period, including an assessment of these scenarios under the stress of an extreme weather event.
• Long-Term Scenarios must incorporate seven categories of factors that influence transmission needs, which specifically include state policies that impact electricity supply and demand either directly or indirectly.
• Active participation from state entities—such as governors' offices, energy and air quality regulators, and public utility commissioners—is necessary to ensure that planning scenarios represent plausible futures and state priorities.
