NERC’s mission is to promote the reliability of electricity supply for North America. In short, NERC helps electric utilities and other electricity suppliers work together to keep the lights on. It does this by reviewing the past for lessons learned, monitoring the present for compliance with policies, criteria, standards, and guides, and assessing the future reliability of the bulk electric systems. The membership of NERC is unique. It is a not-for-profit corporation whose owners are nine Regional Councils. The members of these Regional Councils and the one affiliate Council are individual electric systems from all ownership segments of the electricity supply industry -- investor-owned, federal, rural electric cooperatives, state, municipal, and provincial utilities, independent power producers, power marketers, and electricity brokers. These entities account for virtually all the electricity supplied in the United States, Canada, and the northern portion of Baja California, Mexico. Michehl R. Gent is President of NERC.
