Solar Firms File for Exempt Wholesale Generator Status Updates

Published Date: 8/20/2025

Notice

Summary

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission got a bunch of new filings from solar and energy storage companies saying they qualify as exempt wholesale generators. This means these companies can sell power without some usual rules, which might speed up clean energy projects. If you want to comment, you’ve got until early September to speak up before any decisions are made.

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Deadlines to Comment or Intervene

If you want to intervene, protest, or answer a complaint in any of these FERC dockets, you must file according to Rules 211, 214, or 206 by 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the specified comment date. Several listed proceedings show comment deadlines of 5:00 p.m. ET on September 4, 2025 or 5:00 p.m. ET on September 5, 2025 (some dockets list September 2, 2025).

Help Available from FERC Office of Public Participation

The Commission's Office of Public Participation (OPP) can help members of the public — including landowners, community organizations, and Tribal members — access information and navigate FERC processes for filings like interventions, comments, or rehearing requests. The notice gives OPP contact information: phone (202) 502-6595 and an email address for assistance.
