Prairie State Solar, LLC has submitted an application for market-based rate authority, which includes a request for blanket approval for future securities issuance and liability assumptions, to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). In this supplemental notice, FERC has outlined the procedure for filing interventions or protests, emphasizing electronic submission through their website. The deadline for filing any protests regarding this application is March 15, 2021. Due to COVID-19, FERC's Public Reference Room is closed, but documents can be accessed online.
Simple Explanation
Prairie State Solar wants permission to sell electricity at prices they decide, and to be allowed to make money decisions easily, like borrowing money in the future. They have told a government group about this, and people have until March 15, 2021, to say if they have any problems with it. Everyone needs to do this online because there's a bug going around and the office is closed.
