Great Plains Energy Incorporated (NYSE:GXP), ended its Friday’s trading session with -0.16% loss, and closed at $25.16.
Eight electric utilities and energy companies recently declared an initiative to provide improved responses to major events affecting the electric transmission grid by giving transmission-owning entities access to domestically warehoused long lead-time critical equipment.
Associates of American Electric Power, Berkshire Hathaway Energy, Duke Energy, Edison International, Eversource Energy, Exelon, Great Plains Energy (GXP), and Southern Company have signed a memorandum of understanding to pursue development of Grid Assurance™, a limited liability company that anticipates to offer subscribers cost-effective solutions for enhancing grid resiliency and protecting customers from prolonged transmission outages.
As projected, Grid Assurance will own and provide subscribers with timely access to an inventory of emergency spare transmission equipment that can otherwise take months to acquire. Grid Assurance filed a petition with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) late yesterday seeking confirmation that this service can be part of a transmission-owning entity’s strategy to effectively address grid resiliency mandates. Grid Assurance will not be FERC regulated, but plans to charge cost-based subscription fees, similar to FERC-regulated transmission formula rates. Cost-based subscription fees are predictable to facilitate subscribers’ ability to recover expenses.
Great Plains Energy Incorporated, through its auxiliaries, generates, transmits, distributes, and sells electricity in the United States. It also provides regulated steam services in St. Joseph, Missouri. The company generates electricity using coal, nuclear, natural gas, oil, and wind resources.
