Gas-Electric Reliability for America Statement

WWW.NERC.COM

NERC has long stated that natural gas is essential to the reliability of the grid during the electricity industry’s unprecedented transformation. We welcome any effort to meet the gas/electric challenge with the sense of urgency that it deserves and the leadership of Gas Electric Reliability for America (GERA) in keeping the focus on this critical reliability issue. The GERA task force is continuing to spotlight the need for ongoing dialogue regarding these two interconnected, critical infrastructures.

In addition to GERA’s work, we are encouraged by the various efforts being undertaken across industry, including recent activity by the Interstate Natural Gas Association of America, the Natural Gas Supply Association, the Electric Power Supply Association, several of the independent system operators, and NARUC’?s upcoming recommendations; however, more work is needed to fully address the challenges and risks.

NERC remains committed to collaborating with industry, our federal, state and provincial government partners, and other stakeholders, which is imperative if we are to continue assuring a reliable, resilient grid now and into the future. ?
