According to the requirements of the State of Ohio Amended Substitute Senate Bill No.3, the legislation that allows for competitive retail electric service in the state, the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) adopted rules to assure transmission reliability through appropriate Regional Transmission Entity organization. The PUCO also developed minimum service quality, safety and reliability requirements for noncompetitive retail electric services. Through an open public process, the rules and requirements were established to assure transmission and distribution reliability for the state
