Motion for Leave to Intervene Out of Time of EPSA re: The New PJM Companies, American Electric Power Co. and Central and South West Corp.

Motion to Intervene

EPSA is the national trade association representing competitive power suppliers, including generators and marketers. These suppliers, who account for nearly 40 percent of the installed generating capacity in the United States, provide reliable and competitively priced electricity from environmentally responsible facilities serving global power markets. EPSA seeks to bring the benefits of competition to all power customers.

Many of EPSA’s members are authorized to sell energy and ancillary services at market-based rates, and are active participants in the PJM Interconnection and MISO markets. Accordingly, EPSA has a direct and substantial interest in the outcome of this proceeding that cannot be adequately represented by any other party.

Further, EPSA and its member companies have and continue to engage in Commission dockets involving matters having significant implications for the promotion of non-discriminatory transmission access and competitive power markets. The public hearing initiated by the November 25 Order is such a proceeding. Accordingly, good cause exists to grant EPSA’s motion to intervene out of time. EPSA’s intervention will not prejudice any existing party or intervenor, and will not delay or otherwise disrupt this proceeding, given the early stage of the proceeding. Consistent with the Commission’s rules, EPSA will accept the record as it now exists.

All pleadings, correspondence and other communications concerning this proceeding should be directed to:
