PJM Interconnection, L.L.C............ ER14-1485-005 Not Consolidated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In an order dated November 24, 2015,\1\ the Commission found that the assignment of cost allocation for the projects in the filings and complaints listed in the caption using PJM's solution-based distribution factor (DFAX) cost allocation method had not been shown to be just and reasonable and may be unjust, unreasonable, or unduly discriminatory or preferential. The Commission directed its staff to establish a technical conference to explore both whether there is a definable category of reliability projects within PJM for which the solution-based DFAX cost allocation method may not be just and reasonable, such as projects addressing reliability violations that are not related to flow on the planned transmission facility, and whether an alternative just and reasonable ex ante cost allocation method could be established for any such category of projects. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ PJM Interconnection, L.L.C., et al., 153 FERC ] 61,245 (2015) (November 2015 Order). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The technical conference was held on January 12, 2016. At the technical conference, staff indicated that it would establish a schedule for post-technical conference comments after reviewing the technical conference transcript.
