Abstract

PJM Interconnection, LLC, (PJM) is a FERC approved Regional Transmission Organization (RTO) and has served as the transmission operator, balancing authority and reliability coordinator for its members for many decades before those terms were developed by NERC. PJM also operates an electricity and ancillary services market and procures some restoration services through the market. Transmission owner members of PJM are responsible for developing system restoration plans for their transmission systems. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) has been established as the Electric Reliability Organization (ERO) for the North American interconnected electric system. A responsibility of NERC is to establish reliability standards for the owners, operators and users of the bulk electric system. Under its annually updated Reliability Standards Work Plan, NERC is revising its set of system restoration standards. That process began in November, 2006 and is expected to be completed in 2008. This presentation describes the practices of PJM and its members to plan and train for system restoration involving blackstart resources. It continues with a report on the progress made in revising the NERC system restoration standards.
