NS Power and IESO-Nova Scotia file confidential contact information for inverter-based resource owners in response to NSEB inquiry in NERC reliability standards proceeding M12717
AI summary
- In response to a July 22, 2026 NSEB Board letter, Ns Power and Ieso Nova Scotia jointly submitted confidential contact particulars for owners of existing and planned Distributed Energy Resources inverter-based resources (IBRs) listed in M12717, Exhibit N-2
- The redacted table (Document 103130) identifies 10 existing IBRs — predominantly wind farms plus two NS Power-owned battery energy storage systems (IR 662 Spider Lake BESS and IR 664 Bridgewater BESS) — and approximately 18 planned IBRs, mostly wind projects with one planned BESS (IR 697 White Rock)
- The Board's July 22 letter flagged that non-public-utility IBR owners not currently registered with System Reliability NERC could become subject to new Glossary of Terms obligations, and expressed concern about confusion in the wind farm community given unsettled legislation under the More Access to Energy Act
- A confidential version (Document 103131) containing unredacted owner contact details was filed separately; access requires a Confidentiality Agreement with the NSEB Clerk
- NS Power notes that IR 762-Minas Highlands Wind was not in the original Exhibit N-2 response because it falls outside the new definitions, but shares facilities with IR 673-Benjamin Mill Wind and may nonetheless be affected by the incoming standards
