Are there lower AGC environments ? The document concluded they need to test more but I imagine there is just one AGC per system operator. BC hydro, fortis, BPA, PGE?

AGC just balances power flows so imports/exports over interconnections between power authorities flow as scheduled right?

Yeah it depends on the system operator, but I know some do for sure. In a test environment you might still receive the same input SCADA data, but could have entirely new calculations running. It's just that those calculations aren't sent anywhere.
