Akin senior counsel Scott Johnson will present part of a live webinar with Strafford entitled “PURPA Rules: FERC Revisions Regarding QF Power Sales, Requirements for Utilities, QF Certification, State Authority.” The panel will provide in-depth analysis of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) regulations under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA), recent revisions to those regulations and appeals of those revisions. It will discuss critical aspects of the rules to encourage the development of qualifying small power production facilities and cogeneration facilities (QFs), requirements for electric utilities, state authority to set rates in QF power sales contracts and modification of FERC’s “one-mile rule.” It will also address changes to a utility’s obligation to purchase QF output, QF certifications and other important aspects of FERC’s PURPA regulations. The webinar is approved for CLE credit and will take place on Thursday, April 18, from 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. ET. Please click here for more information and to register.
