limitations so as to avert potential voltage collapse or line overloads that could
lead to the interruption of power supply in a local area or region.
(c) The dispatch follows reliability, emergency operation or similar protocols that
follow specific NERC, regional, state, public utility commission or local
standards or guidelines.
(d) The power is provided only to the facility itself or to support the local
transmission and distribution system.
(e) The owner or operator identifies and records the entity that dispatches the
engine and the specific NERC, regional, state, public utility commission or
local standards or guidelines that are being followed for dispatching the engine.
The local balancing authority or local transmission and distribution system
operator may keep these records on behalf of the engine owner or operator.
