On October 14, 2025, Jason Gray spoke at APPA’s 2025 Legal and Regulatory Conference in San Diego. Mr. Gray gave a presentation on gas-electric coordination, an issue that is critically important to load serving entities that procure power from wholesale markets as well as customers that rely on local distribution companies to provide essential heating service. His presentation explained the increasing degree to which operation of gas systems is converging with the operation of FERC-regulated markets. He provided a historical overview of FERC’s efforts to improve coordination in light of the inter-dependencies between the two systems. He also discussed recent developments and novel proposals that can further protect customers from vulnerabilities that are particularly acute during extreme cold weather events.
