Railbelt Reliability Ad-Hoc Committee


The Railbelt Reliability Committee is a voluntary committee comprised of representatives from 4 of the 6 Railbelt Electric Utilities, Anchorage Municipal Light and Power, Chugach Electric Association, Homer Electric Association, and Golden Valley Electric Association; and the Alaska Energy Authority.

The Committee's task is to draft standards for public review to update Alaska's Railbelt Electrical Grid reliability rules. The recently released North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Reliability Standards will be used as a starting point for the drafting process.
