Electricity – Records
Application
BA1 Wind GP Corp., as general partner of BA1 Wind LP, (“BA1”) applied under the Fair, Efficient and Open Competition Regulation (“FEOCR”), seeking permission to share records not available to the public related to the Buffalo Atlee Wind Farm 1.
Decision
The AUC was satisfied that BA1 had demonstrated that: (i) the sharing of records was reasonably necessary for BA1 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 considered the Market Surveillance Administrator’s support of the application in its determination to permit the sharing of records.
