INFRASTRUCTURE: Urges and requests that Louisiana utilities assess their electric grids for vulnerabilities to ground induced currents
Read by title. Lies over under the rules.
Summary
The resolution asks Louisiana power companies to evaluate how vulnerable their transmission and distribution systems are to ground‑induced currents (GICs) and the resulting harmonics, using the latest IEC and IEEE standards. It also directs the state to identify hardware solutions, estimate the costs of protection, and explore federal funding to cover those costs. Copies of the resolution will be sent to the Public Service Commission, the governor, the state’s congressional delegation, the U.S. Secretary of Energy, and FERC.
