MADRI

MADRI was established in 2004 by the public utility commissions of Delaware, District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, along with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and PJM Interconnection. The public utility commissions of Illinois and Ohio later became active participants. MADRI meetings are organized and facilitated by the Regulatory Assistance Project, funded through the U.S. DOE... MADRI provides a venue to identify and consider different perspectives and possible solutions to these challenges in a collaborative setting, outside of contested cases and hearing rooms. On several occasions in the past, MADRI participants have produced consensus products (e.g., a model tariff for decoupling and small generator interconnection procedures) that have been implemented in whole or in part by utilities or state regulators.
