Energy Assurance GuidelinesEnergy Assurance Guidelines
Provide state energy and emergency officials with tools for understanding and reviewing how their jurisdictions respond to energy disruptions and how to improve the energy emergency plans that guide this response.
The Guidelines are a compilation of information from many state energy and emergency officials who have experienced and responded to energy emergencies.

Ten State Actions to Assure Energy Emergency Preparedness Make sure you and your staff are
prepared and trained to deal with the emergency situation.
Know your state’s energy profile. Get to know the key government and
industry contacts. Maintain a current file of legal
authorities. Remember energy locations and keep
them current.
1010
Be familiar with response measures. Work with the private sector. Regular plan review and update. Maintain an alternative budget for
emergencies. Be prepared when meeting with the
media.

Gathering Data and Gathering Data and InformationInformation
Understanding the state energy profile– Capacities & Utilization– Energy flows,
consumption & prices Identify who in the state is
responsible for tracking trends, statistics
Know what data is collected and how to get it and what it means
Vulnerability assessment
1313
Recommended ActionsVoluntary Monitor Supply (no shortage)
Attention to rumors, reports, national and regional events
Monitor, alert, coordinate Issue public advisories as needed
Moderate shortage Seek input from stakeholders regarding
potential mandatory actions Give special attention to supporting private
sector recovery efforts– Coordinate with advisory committees,
other stakeholders Conduct risk analysis, notify Governor of
impending energy emergency
1414
Recommended ActionsRecommended ActionsMandatoryMandatory
Severe Shortages Recommend mandatory actions State of Disaster
– Responsibility usually falls to state & local EMA, sometimes PUC
Declaration of Energy Emergency– SEO or PUC should coordinate with EMA and federal agencies as appropriate:
DOE, FEMA, DOT (e.g., pipelines and driver hour
waivers)
1515
What Happens? What Happens? Natural Gas EmergencyNatural Gas Emergency
PUC/PSC– monitors supply & infrastructure status– energy efficiency and demand-side
measures– sharp price jumps may require additional
low income energy assistance and weatherization
– makes recommendations to the Governor
Local Distribution Companies (LDC)– initiate PUC/PSC-approved gas service
curtailment plans to protect essential human services
1616
What Happens? What Happens? Electricity EmergencyElectricity Emergency
Public Utility Commissions (PUC)– Monitors for outages and emergencies– Examples:
– Storm, transmission and distribution, generation capability,interconnections, equipment failure
Utilities– Institute “Emergency Electrical Procedures”– Know what should be exempt from rotating
blackouts– Coordinate with Control Area Operators
(CAOs) Regional Transmission Organizations (RTO) or Independent Systems Operators (ISO)
– Restoration, reports
1717
What Happens? What Happens? Petroleum EmergencyPetroleum Emergency
State Energy Office/PUC– Monitors area prices and other factors for signs
for shortage.– Receives informal reports from associations
regarding product allocations.– Evaluates and makes recommendations to
governor.– Coordinates with industry.– Convenes advisory committee and stakeholders
as needed– Develop recommended mandatory actions.– Implement, administer, and monitor.
Industry– Attempts supply enhancement.– Repairs and restoration as needed.
