Electricity Transmission Scorecard Act

The Electricity Transmission Scorecard Act (HR 6176) requires electricity transmission owners and regional grid operators to publicly report on their performance using standardized metrics. It mandates biannual reports from transmission owners (TIAPS) and annual reports from regional grid operators (RIAPS) covering affordability, investment effectiveness, system reliability, interconnection fairness, and other key performance indicators. The bill establishes a framework for transparent, comparable data that would be publicly accessible through a government portal, allowing ratepayers and stakeholders to evaluate transmission service quality. This applies to all entities operating transmission facilities, including those not previously subject to FERC reporting requirements, aiming to improve transparency and accountability in electricity transmission.
