Properties
Instance of
Applied to
Local Electric Utility Resource Planner
Organizational Board Energy Decision Authority
Balancing with
Carbon Footprint Reduction Stakeholder preferences
Client Loyalty
Concrete expression
Engineer A must proactively disclose the rolling blackout risk to the board without waiting for the board to ask about grid implications, because the board lacks the technical knowledge to know what questions to ask.
Confidence
0.93
Importance
high
Interpretation
Proactive disclosure is required because the board is a non-technical decision-making body that relies on Engineer A to surface all material risks; the rolling blackout risk is material to the board's decision and must be disclosed proactively.
Invoked by
Engineer A Energy Systems Reporting Engineer
Tension resolution
Proactive disclosure obligation requires Engineer A to include the rolling blackout risk in the board report even though the board did not specifically request grid reliability analysis.
Source Evidence
Source text
Engineer A also realizes that a move to solar production without storage may stress the local utility generation mix even more, increasing the likelihood of rolling blackouts.
Text references
Engineer A also realizes that a move to solar production without storage may stress the local utility generation mix even more, increasing the likelihood of rolling blackouts.
Engineer A learns that the utility resource planners reviewed their current generation mix and believe that during extreme weather events, they may be forced to institute rolling outages to keep system generating facilities on-line.
