BREAKER BRIEF
WEEK OF OCTOBER 19 TO OCTOBER 25, 2026 | BREAKERBRIEF.COM
NERC
One comment window closes this week: the Standards Processes Manual revisions tied to the modernization of standard processes and procedures. A new item on computational loads disturbance performance also joined the list.
Corrected November 7, 2026. The first version of this edition said 2026-02 Computational Loads was already open, though its final ballot had closed on October 14. This version says it was already on the list and describes the twenty as tracked items rather than open ones.
Closing this week
Monday, October 26: the comment window on Standards Processes Manual Revisions | Modernization of Standard Processes and Procedures Implementation closes. This is the one comment window this week that a reader loses by missing.
What moved
New this week is 2026-03 Computational Loads Disturbance Performance. It sits alongside 2026-02 Computational Loads, which was already on the list.
NERC-2025-04, previously shown as Active, is no longer on the tracked list.
The wide view
NERC's project list holds twenty items, all tracked. The Standards Committee has discontinued 13 of them under its current process, with an intent to reconsider them under the new standards intake process. Apart from the window above, the rest have no comment window open, among them 2025-06 Supply Chain Risk Management, 2025-03 Order No. 901 Operational Studies, and 2025-01 Canadian-Specific Revisions to EOP-012-3.
