LG&E/KU Standards of Conduct

Effective September 22, 2004, E.ON U.S. and other U.S. energy companies must comply with new Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") orders requiring organizational separation between transmission and energy and marketing affiliates.

Collectively, the new orders are referred to as the Standards of Conduct and are fundamentally based on two guiding principles. First, a Transmission Provider's employees engaged in transmission system operations must function independent from the employees of its Marketing and Energy Affiliates. Secondly, a Transmission Provider must treat all transmission customers, affiliated and non-affiliated, on a non-discriminatory basis and must not operate its transmission system to preferentially benefit its marketing or energy affiliates. The Final Rule requires organizational separation of all energy and marketing affiliates, including natural gas marketing affiliates, from the electric transmission function.

The Standards of Conduct require that a Transmission Provider must post certain information on its corporate website or its OASIS. Links to all of the requisite information, whether residing here or on the LG&E/KU page of the SPP, are provided below. Please contact the Chief Compliance Officer if you have any questions.
