Electricity – Records
Application
Stirling Wind Project Ltd. (“Stirling”) filed an application under the Fair, Efficient and Open Competition Regulation (“FEOCR”), seeking permission to share records not available to the public related to the 5-Megawatt (“MW”) Stirling Wind Project I, located near Lethbridge, between Stirling, URICA Energy Real Time Ltd., Stirling Renewable Energy Limited Partnership, and CWP Energy Inc.
Decision
The AUC was satisfied that Stirling had demonstrated that: (i) the sharing of records was reasonably necessary for Stirling to carry out its business; and (ii) the subject records would not be used for any purpose that did not support the fair, efficient and openly competitive operation of the Alberta electricity market. The AUC was also satisfied that the total offer control of the parties would not exceed the offer control limit of 30 percent under s 5(5) of the FEOCR. The AUC approved the application.
