Application for Authorization To
Export Electric Energy; Merelec USA
LLC
Grid Deployment Office,
Department of Energy.
ACTION: Notice of application.
AGENCY:
Merelec USA LLC (the
Applicant or Merelec USA) has applied
for authorization to transmit electric
energy from the United States to Mexico
pursuant to the Federal Power Act.
DATES: Comments, protests, or motions
to intervene must be submitted on or
before June 14, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Comments, protests,
motions to intervene, or requests for
more information should be addressed
by electronic mail to
Electricity.Exports@hq.doe.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Janessa Zucchetto, (240) 474–8226,
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 April 10, 2023, the
authority to issue such orders was
delegated to the DOE’s Grid Deployment
Office (GDO) by Delegation Order No.
S1–DEL–S3–2023 and Redelegation
Order No. S3–DEL–GD1–2023.
On January 29, 2024, Merelec USA
filed an application with DOE
(Application or App.) to transmit
electric energy from the United States to
Mexico for a term of five-years. App. at
1.
According to the Application, Merelec
USA is a limited liability corporation,
validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Texas.
App. at Exhibit B. Merelec USA
represents it is 95% owned by MECSA
Holding LLC, and 5% owned by an
individual, Geibi Menjivar. Id. at 3.
Merelec USA further states ‘‘MECSA
Holding LLC is wholly-owned by four
individuals, each with a 25% ownership

share: Gustavo Napoleón Chávez,
Carolina Beatriz Chávez Dı́az, Gustavo
Enrique Chávez Dı́az, and Carlos
Guillermo Chávez Dı́az.’’ Id. According
to the application, ‘‘Merelec USA is a
power marketer authorized by the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(‘‘FERC’’) to make sales of electric
power at wholesale in interstate
commerce at market-based rates.’’ Id. at
2. The Applicant further states it ‘‘will
purchase the energy to be exported from
wholesale generators, electric utilities,
and federal power marketing agencies.
The instant application relates to
Merelec USA as a marketer of electric
energy only.’’ Id. at 2–3.
The Applicant asserts it ‘‘does not
own or control any transmission
facilities and does not have a franchised
service area’’ App. at 2. The Applicant
represents that it ‘‘will make all
necessary commercial arrangements and
will obtain any and all other regulatory
approvals required in order to carry out
any electricity exports[,]’’ including:
‘‘(1) scheduling each transaction with
the appropriate balancing authority area
in compliance with all reliability
criteria, standards, and guidelines of the
North American Electric Reliability
Corporation and the relevant Regional
Entities (collectively, ‘‘NERC’’) in effect
at the time of export, and (2) obtaining
all necessary transmission access over
approved export facilities.’’ Id. at 3.
Merelec USA notes it will purchase the
electricity that it may export, on either
a firm or an interruptible basis, from
wholesale generators, electric utilities,
federal power marketing agencies, and
affiliates through negotiated agreements
that have been voluntarily executed by
the selling parties after considering their
own need for any such electricity. Id. at
2–3. For these reasons, the Applicant
asserts that ‘‘proposed electricity
exports will not impair or tend to
impede the sufficiency of electric power
supplies in the United States or the
regional coordination of electric utility
planning or operations.’’ Id. at 3.
The existing international
transmission facilities to be utilized by
the Applicant have been previously
authorized by Presidential permits
issued pursuant to Executive Order
10485, as amended, and are appropriate
for open access transmission by third
parties. See App. at Exhibit C.
Procedural Matters: Any person
desiring to be heard in this proceeding
should file a comment or protest to the
Application at Electricity.Exports@
hq.doe.gov. Protests should be filed in
accordance with Rule 211 of Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission’s
(FERC’s) Rules of Practice and
Procedure (18 CFR 385.211). Any
