What changed
FERC commissioners approved a consent agreement with Tenaska Power Services Company, resolving investigation IN25-13 concerning the company's conduct in wholesale electricity markets. The settlement contains specific terms including disgorgement and compliance requirements, though specific penalty amounts are not disclosed in the order. The company neither admitted nor denied the findings as part of the settlement.
Energy companies operating in FERC-jurisdictional wholesale markets should review this consent agreement to understand the enforcement patterns and compliance expectations. While this is a settlement with one company, it signals FERC's continued focus on market manipulation and market-based rate conduct. Companies should ensure their market activities,尤其是those involving virtual bidding, physical withholding, or related practices, align with FERC's compliance expectations.
