On April 15, 2021, in Docket No. EL20-49-001, the Commission issued an order addressing arguments GreenHat Energy, LLC (GreenHat) raised in its December 18, 2020 request for rehearing of the Commission's November 19, 2020 order granting in part Shell Energy North America’s (Shell) petition for declaratory order related to disputes between Shell and GreenHat regarding bilateral transfers of Financial Transmission Rights under the PJM Tariff. The Commission modified its discussion, but came to the same conclusion in its November 19, 2020 order in which it determined that entry of data into FTR Center for bilateral trades does not automatically establish stand-alone bilateral contracts at the stated price, absent a separate agreement by the parties to the bilateral trades to do so, and declining to assert primary jurisdiction to resolve the dispute under Texas law as to whether Shell and GreenHat entered into separate contracts that Shell would make payments based on entries in the FTR Center.
