SUMMARY:2023 Texas Chapter Annual Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Join EBA’s Texas Chapter for their 2023 Annual Symposium in Houston\, TX! This event features a luncheon fireside chat with Former FERC Commissioner Bernard McNamee\, and expert-led panels featuring topics such as: Carbon Capture\, Gas-Electric Coordination\, Midstream/LNG\, and FERC Enforcement.   \n\n\n\nThank you to our Symposium hosts:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n9:00 – 10:00 AM: Breakfast and Registration  \n\n\n\n10:00 – 10:05 AM: Welcome from EBA Texas Chapter President \n\n\n\nDamien R. LysterPartner – Energy RegulationVinson & Elkins LLP\n\n\n\n10:05 – 10:30 AM: The New Energy Landscape\n\n\n\nAmanda DraneEnergy ReporterHouston Chronicle\n\n\n\n10:30 – 11:30 AM: Electricity & Battery Storage Technologies\n\n\n\nAs the energy transition unfolds and new technologies emerge\, battery storage systems are stepping into new and bigger roles in the power grid. From utility-scale systems to smaller individual systems behind the meter\, batteries have the potential to help solve a number of problems facing the grid.  But they create new challenges as well. This panel will discuss battery storage technologies and explore recent developments in battery storage systems and policies\, their effects on the grid\, and opportunities for the future. Access Speaker Bios \n\n\n\n\n\nWinston SkinnerCounsel – Energy Regulation Vinson & Elkins LLP\n\n\n\n\n\nShelley EichenlaubVice President\, Contracts & ProcurementBroad Reach Power\n\n\n\n\n\nEric GoffPresidentGoff Policy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJason RyanExecutive Vice President\, Regulatory Services and Government AffairsCenterPoint Energy\n\n\n\n\n\nJoel YuVice President\, PolicyEnchanted Rock\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:30 – 11:45 AM: Break\n\n\n\n11:45 AM – 1:00 PM: Lunch and Fireside Chat with Former FERC Commissioner Bernard McNamee\n\n\n\nJoin former FERC Commissioner Bernard L. McNamee for a fireside chat during lunch.  Moderated by Mr. Charlie Ofner\, partner at White & Case\, this discussion will revolve around how the US energy system is adjusting to a new environment\, and what changes may be just over the horizon.  This session will explore a wide range of trends and topics in energy law and regulation\, including grid functionality and reliability\, permitting and interconnection reform\, FERC’s role in responding to current and future energy infrastructure and market developments\, and much more.

As a result of this potential\, companies and investors continue to ramp up investments in CCUS projects and technologies. Despite the billions of dollars that are beginning to be invested here\, the CCUS space is still in many ways a nascent industry\, with potentially major benefits for those willing to take bold risks. This panel will provide a deep dive into the key legal and financial considerations that companies and investors alike should consider when developing their own carbon capture playbooks to navigate the emerging CCUS landscape.

This panel will discuss recent forces behind midstream activity in Texas\, with a focus on these and other innovative solutions that the midstream sector is investing in to lower its own carbon intensity and meet the demand for lower carbon energy more broadly.

SUMMARY:EBA Energy Law Academy Course 202: An Introduction to PURPA
DESCRIPTION:This course is intended for energy lawyers and other professionals new to the electric industry. The course provides an introduction to the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978\, as amended (PURPA) and how it has been implemented by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and state public service commissions (PSCs). Our faculty will provide an overview of the enactment of PURPA and its key provisions; describe the obligations imposed on electric utilities under PURPA; explain how qualifying facility (QF) status is obtained\, what QF status means\, and why QF status is necessary and beneficial; address the determination of “avoided cost” rates paid to QFs; cover waivers and the termination of the must-purchase obligation under PURPA; address the PURPA enforcement regime; cover the PURPA ratemaking standards that states must consider; and wrap up with a discussion of recent developments and trends under PURPA. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\nMonday\, November 13\n\n\n\n12:00: Networking lunch\n\n\n\n1:00: Introductions\n\n\n\n1:10 – 2:10 PURPA Overview  \n\n\n\n\n\nThis session will cover:A.
