Sec. 0.6. The general assembly declares that it is the continuing policy of the state that decisions concerning Indiana's electric generation resource mix, energy infrastructure, and electric service ratemaking constructs must consider each of the following attributes of electric utility service:

(i) scheduled;  and

(ii) reasonably expected unscheduled;

outages of system elements;  and

(B) the operating reliability of the electric system, including the ability of the electric system to withstand sudden disturbances such as electric short circuits or unanticipated loss of system components.

(3) Resiliency, including the ability of the electric system or its components to:

(A) adapt to changing conditions;  and

(B) withstand and rapidly recover from disruptions or off-nominal events.

(A) maintain a state of equilibrium during:

(i) normal and abnormal conditions;  or

(ii) disturbances;  and
