Whenever the Commission, upon complaint of a State commission,
after notice to each State commission and public utility affected
and after opportunity for hearing, shall find that any interstate
service of any public utility is inadequate or insufficient, the
Commission shall determine the proper, adequate, or sufficient
service to be furnished, and shall fix the same by its order, rule,
or regulation: Provided, That the Commission shall have no
authority to compel the enlargement of generating facilities for
such purposes, nor to compel the public utility to sell or exchange
energy when to do so would impair its ability to render adequate
service to its customers.
