Governance

​To create a governance structure for Western EIM, a transitional committee was formed, inclusive of stakeholders throughout the west. These stakeholders came together to design a governance framework formalized in a charter. The charter establishes the EIM Governing Body, which has been delegated levels of authority from the ISO Board of Governors on rules specific to participation in the EIM. In addition, the charter establishes two other components of the overall governance structure for the EIM: a Body of State Regulators and a Regional Issues Forum.

Governing Body members

The EIM governing body was designed by regional stakeholders to give entities throughout the west a voice in decision-making on EIM matters. The five members of the governing body were nominated by a committee of western stakeholders. These members bring a high level of professionalism and leadership, with work experience in public power, investor-owned utilities, and as state regulators. Click a member for their biography.
