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) 
under Delegation Order No. S1-DEL-S3-2023 and Redelegation Order No.

DOE (Application or App.) for renewal of their export authority for an 
additional five-year term. App. at 1.
    According to the Application, Dynasty Power is incorporated in the 
Canadian province of Alberta, with its principal place of business in 
Calgary, Alberta. App. at 1. The Applicant's ``sole business is to act 
as a power marketer in the purchase and sale of wholesale electricity, 
capacity, and ancillary services at market-based rates[.]'' Id. The 
Applicant ``does not own or control any electric power generation or 
transmission facilities and does not have a franchised electric power 
service area.'' Id at 2. Dynasty Power represents that it ``will 
purchase surplus electric energy from electric utilities and other 
suppliers within the United States and will export this energy to 
Canada over the international electric transmission facilities.'' Id.

all North American Electric Reliability Corporation requirements and 
export limits, which ensure such exports ``will not impede or tend to
