As permitted by NERC and WECC standards, Participating Balancing Authorities within the Northwest Power Pool have instituted a Reserve Sharing Program for contingency reserve.  By sharing contingency reserve, participants are entitled to use not only their own "internal" reserve resources, but to call on other participants for assistance if internal reserve does not fully cover a contingency or disturbance.
