Systrends and Energy Compliance Consulting (ECC) announce the integration of services to streamline the development of a new Electric Quarterly Report (EQR) filing software as a result of a proposed rule change by the FERC. The partnership provides a perfect combination of expertise in EQR reporting requirements and development of energy compliance software solutions.
“The collective efforts from each company will provide the necessary knowledge to develop an EQR software solution that will take EQR to the next level; we look forward to working with Systrends to provide the best of breed solution in the market,” said Barbara Bourque, President of ECC.
EQRs contain contract and transaction information which allows FERC to monitor energy markets. Systrends and ECC will work together to develop the premier EQR management software necessary to generate the EQRs based on the new FERC requirements.
“It will be great to work with the leading EQR expert in the industry and we look forward to providing the right solution for our existing client base as well as new customers,” said David Darnell, CEO of Systrends.
