Appalachian Power Company; Notice
of Authorization for Continued Project
Operation
The license for the Niagara
Hydroelectric Project No. 2466 was
issued for a period ending February 29,
2024.
Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA, 16 U.S.C.
808(a)(1), requires the Commission, at
the expiration of a license term, to issue
from year-to-year an annual license to
the then licensee(s) under the terms and
conditions of the prior license until a
new license is issued, or the project is
otherwise disposed of as provided in
section 15 or any other applicable
section of the FPA. If the project’s prior
license waived the applicability of
section 15 of the FPA, then, based on
section 9(b) of the Administrative
Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c), and as
set forth at 18 CFR 16.21(a), if the
licensee of such project has filed an
application for a subsequent license, the
licensee may continue to operate the
project in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the license after the
minor or minor part license expires,
until the Commission acts on its
application. If the licensee of such a
project has not filed an application for
a subsequent license, then it may be
required, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b),
to continue project operations until the
Commission issues someone else a
license for the project or otherwise
orders disposition of the project.
If the project is subject to section 15
of the FPA, notice is hereby given that
an annual license for Project No. 2466
is issued to Appalachian Power
Company for a period effective March 1,
2024, through February 28, 2025, or
until the issuance of a new license for
the project or other disposition under
the FPA, whichever comes first.
If issuance of a new license (or other
disposition) does not take place on or
before February 28, 2025, notice is
hereby given that, pursuant to 18 CFR
16.18(c), an annual license under
section 15(a)(1) of the FPA is renewed
automatically without further order or
notice by the Commission, unless the
Commission orders otherwise.

Increasing Market and Planning
Efficiency Through Improved Software;
Notice of Technical Conference:
Increasing Real-Time and Day-Ahead
Market and Planning Efficiency
Through Improved Software
Take notice that Commission staff
will convene a technical conference on
July 9, 10, and 11, 2024 to discuss
opportunities for increasing real-time
and day-ahead market and planning
efficiency through improved software. A
detailed agenda with the list of
presentation dates and times for the
selected speakers will be published on
the Commission’s website 1 and in
eLibrary after April 26, 2024.
This conference will bring together
experts from diverse backgrounds
including electric power system
operators, software developers,
government, research centers, and
academia. The conference will bring
these experts together for the purposes
of stimulating discussion, sharing
information, and identifying fruitful
avenues for research on improving
software for increased efficiency and
reliability of the bulk power system.
This conference will build on
discussions at prior conferences in this
proceeding by focusing on topics
identified as important to market
efficiency in those conferences. Broadly,
such topics fall into the following
categories:
(1) Software for including climate
change and extreme weather in shortterm load forecasting and in long-term
planning models, including novel
methodologies for assessing capacity

accreditation, energy adequacy,
correlated outages, and weather-related
derates and outages. Software advances
to integrate probabilistic models into
system planning models, whether
scenario-based or stochastic, to better
account for low-probability, high-impact
events, such as extreme weather events.
(2) Software for improving the
efficiency of the interconnection
process, including improved
interconnection studies, software for
automating parts of the interconnection
process, software for expediting power
flow analyses related to interconnection,
etc.
(3) Software for implementing
advanced computing methods such as
artificial intelligence (AI) or machine
learning into existing or novel
applications for improving real-time and
day-ahead market and planning
efficiency.
(4) Software related to grid-enhancing
technologies, such as those described in
Docket Nos. AD19–19 2 and AD19–15,3
including optimal transmission
switching, dynamic transmission line
ratings, power flow controls, and any
software related to implementing the
Commission’s recent rulemaking
regarding line ratings in Order No. 881.4
(5) Software for improving the
performance of generating resources’
ability and incentives to follow dispatch
instructions and for eliminating
unnecessary make-whole payments,
including software for ensuring that
product awards reflect prevailing
transmission constraints and
capabilities of resources to deliver
awarded products.
(6) Software for better modeling and
computation of resources with distinct
operating characteristics such as storage
resources, multi-stage/multiconfiguration resources, hybrid
resources, aggregations of Distributed
Energy Resources (DERs) (including
DER Management Systems, or DERMS),
and others. Presentations on this topic
should focus on alternative formulations
and solution methods for market
models.
(7) Other improvements in algorithms,
model formulations, or hardware
advancements that may allow for
improvements to the bulk power system
in market efficiency and enhanced
reliability.
The conference will take place in a
hybrid format, with presenters and
attendees allowed to participate either
