authorization under section 202(e) of
the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C.
824a(e)).
On May 17, 2011, DOE issued Order
No. EA–216–C to TEMUS, which
authorized the Applicant to transmit
electric energy from the United States to
Canada as a power marketer for a fiveyear term using existing international
transmission facilities. That authority

with DOE for renewal of the export
authority contained in Order No. EA–
216 for an additional five-year term.
In its application, TEMUS states that
it does not own or operate any electric
generation or transmission facilities,
and it does not have a franchised service
area. The electric energy that TEMUS
proposes to export to Canada would be
surplus energy purchased from third
parties such as electric utilities and
Federal power marketing agencies

existing international transmission
facilities to be utilized by TEMUS have
previously been authorized by
Presidential permits issued pursuant to
Executive Order 10485, as amended,

transmission by third parties.
