Grid Deployment Office, Department of Energy. ACTION: Notice of application. AGENCY: Shell Energy North America (US), L.P. (the Applicant or Shell Energy) has applied for authorization to transmit electric energy from the United States to Canada pursuant to the Federal Power Act. DATES: Comments, protests, or motions to intervene must be submitted on or before April 17, 2023. ADDRESSES: Comments, protests, motions to intervene, or requests for more information should be addressed by electronic mail to Electricity.Exports@hq.doe.gov. SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00033 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Steven Blazek, (240) 474–2780, electricity.exports@hq.doe.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The United States Department of Energy (DOE) regulates electricity exports from the United States to foreign countries in accordance with section 202(e) of the Federal Power Act (FPA) (16 U.S.C. 824a(e)) and regulations thereunder (10 CFR 205.300 et seq.). Sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the DOE Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 7151(b) and 7172(f)) transferred this regulatory authority, previously exercised by the nowdefunct Federal Power Commission, to DOE. Section 202(e) of the FPA provides that an entity which seeks to export electricity must obtain an order from DOE authorizing that export. (16 U.S.C. 824a(e)). On June 13, 2022, the authority to issue such orders was delegated to the DOE’s Grid Deployment Office (GDO) under Delegation Order No. S1– DEL–S3–2022–2 and Redelegation Order No. S3–DEL–GD1–2022. On May 5, 2008, DOE issued Order No. EA–339 authorizing Shell Energy to transmit electric energy from the United States to Canada as a power marketer. DOE subsequently renewed Shell Energy’s authorization to export electric energy from the United States to Canada as a power marketer in Order No. EA– 339–A (May 9, 2013), and again in Order No. EA–339–B (May 30, 2018). On December 2, 2022, Shell Energy filed an application with DOE (Application or App) for renewal of their export authority for an additional five-year term. App at 1. In its Application, Shell Energy states that it ‘‘does not own or control any transmission or distribution facilities’’ and ‘‘does not have a franchised service area.’’ App at 2. Shell Energy seeks to renew its authority to ‘‘export electric energy acquired from U.S. generating sources to Canada over international electric transmission facilities.’’ App at 3. Shell Energy represents that it ‘‘will purchase the power to be exported from electric utilities, qualifying small power production facilities, cogeneration facilities and federal power marketing agencies’’ and that ‘‘electric energy exported pursuant to the authorization requested in this Renewal Application, whether on a firm or interruptible basis, will be purchased in bilateral, voluntary transactions from the surplus and available electric energy of the generator/seller.’’ App at 4. Therefore, ‘‘Shell Energy’s exports to Canada will not impair the sufficiency of the electric power supply within the U.S.’’ Id.
