On April 15, 2021, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission supplemented the notice of proposed rulemaking (Supplemental NOPR) for transmission incentives it issued last year (2020 NOPR). In its Supplemental NOPR, FERC focused on one hotly contested incentive the return on equity (ROE) adder for transmitting and electric utilities that join a regional transmission organization, independent system operator, or similar entity (Transmission Organization) and abandoned its proposal in the 2020 NOPR to increase the incentive from 50 basis points to 100 basis points. FERC also proposed to sunset the ROE adder three years after the recipient transfers control of its transmission facilities to a Transmission Organization.
