# Southern Renewable Energy Association The Southern Renewable Energy Association (SREA) is a non-profit regional renewable-energy trade association that intervened in the Entergy Arkansas new-generation proceedings. The Commission granted SREA **limited** intervention in the [[Jefferson Power Station]] CECPN docket (25-047-U, Order No. 5, Doc. 60, 2025-08-27) — "for the purpose of representing itself as a regional trade organization with experience in generation and transmission facilities that meet the definition of strategic investments under Act 373" — while declining full intervention because SREA did not provide a membership list ([[Jefferson Order No. 5 SREA Limited Intervention]]). An SREA intervention petition is pending in the Entergy base rate case (26-001-U) as of the Staff's 2026-06-05 procedural motion ([[psc/docket-26-001-u-procedural-2026-06-10/_overview|Docket 26-001-U procedural retrieval]]). ## People - [[Simon Mahan]] — Executive Director; represented SREA in the Jefferson docket ([[psc/docket-25-047-u-jefferson-2026-05-22/_overview|Docket 25-047-U production overview]]). ## Roles in this corpus - **Jefferson (25-047-U) — limited intervenor.** SREA's petition raised the docket's core substantive resource-planning challenges: Entergy's apparent exclusion of battery storage as an alternative or supplement to JPS, the removal of the Stakeholder Committee Report from the 2024 IRP exhibit, the assertion that JPS was "added manually" to the IRP, and whether adding a baseload gas plant to a gas-centric portfolio "will enable EAL to expand the diversity of its resource portfolio" ([[Jefferson Order No. 5 SREA Limited Intervention]]). Order No. 5 ruling on SREA's petition is also the order that first framed the docket as the Commission's first explicit Act 373 [[Strategic Investment]] proceeding. - **Base rate case (26-001-U) — pending party.** SREA's intervention petition is among those listed as pending in Staff's 2026-06-05 procedural-schedule motion ([[psc/docket-26-001-u-procedural-2026-06-10/_overview|Docket 26-001-U procedural retrieval]]). ## Notes How the Commission ultimately treated SREA's substantive objections to the JPS IRP justification is in the unretrieved portion of the Jefferson docket (the final CECPN order). The corpus corroborates SREA's limited intervention and its petition's substance; no SREA testimony has been separately retrieved.
