A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Urging the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to swiftly
consider the United States Department of Energy's proposed
Grid Resiliency Pricing Rule and implement policies to ensure
fuel-secure baseload electricity generation resources receive
proper compensation for the positive attributes they provide
our nation's and our Commonwealth's electric system.
WHEREAS, Electric generation power plants in this
Commonwealth that participate in the wholesale electric markets
strengthen competition and enhance the resilience and
reliability of the bulk power and transmission systems and are
vital to the public interest; and
WHEREAS, The nation's and this Commonwealth's economy,
environment and security depend on a reliable, resilient
electric grid powered by an "all of the above" mix of energy
generation resources, including traditional baseload generation
that is produced from long-term fuel sources located onsite; and
