But not all large loads are the same\, and there are both opportunities and risks associated with their location and development. This panel will explore the drivers behind the increase in facilities requiring significant consumption of electricity\, the different types of large loads and their operating characteristics\, and the impacts of these facilities on both the grid and certain underlying policy decisions about how electricity will be sourced. We will explore these issues from the perspectives of industry analysts\, state regulators\, the grid operator\, and developers/end users. \n\n\n\n\n\nMichael KesslerManaging Assistant General CounselMISO (moderator)\n\n\n\n\n\nChairman Doug ScottIllinois Commerce Commission\n\n\n\n\n\nBryn BakerSenior Director – Policy InnovationClean Energy Buyers Association\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Aidan TuohyDirector\, R&D Electric Power Research Institute\n\n\n\n\n\nDominique DavisManager\, Strategic InsightsMISO\n\n\n\n\n\n11:00 – 11:15 AM: Break\n\n\n\n11:15 AM – 12:30 PM: Panel 2 – Cybersecurity in the Electric and Natural Gas Industries\n\n\n\nThis panel will explore: 1) the North American Electric Reliability Corporations (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) standards for regulating\, enforcing\, monitoring and managing the security of Bulk Electric System; 2) the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) Security Directives for cybersecurity for the natural gas industry; 3) practitioners tips for how to prepare for and represent your clients in NERC CIP and TSA audits/interviews and site visits; and 4)  the Electricity Subsector Coordinating Council’s  Cybersecurity Mutual Assistance program and its availability to both the electric and natural gas industries. \n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Josh BruntyGraduate Program Director for CFS\, ICS Lead for Research\, Associate ProfessorMarshall University\n\n\n\n\n\nMax ReisingerSenior Counsel ReliabilityFirst Corporation \n\n\n\n\n\nFred SteinRegional Security Director Transportation Security Administration \n\n\n\n\n\nM.
