- Ensure that adequacy and reliability of electric supply is supported and not compromised.
- Ensure that all market and transmission access, pricing, and regulatory structures allow all market participants to operate under the same terms and conditions in the regional marketplace.
- Ensure efficient and transparent pricing signals are sent to all market participants facilitating investment in electric power supply and transmission infrastructure.
- Ensure cost effective environmental, safety, and security best practices are put in place and maintained.
