GIP Net Zero Interconnection Service.

Transcription

1 GIP and GIA Energy Displacement Agreement shall mean an agreement between an Interconnection Customer with a commercially operating Generating Facility on the Transmission Provider s Transmission System and Interconnection Customer with a proposed Generating Facility seeking to interconnect with Net Zero Interconnection Service. The Energy Displacement Agreement specifies the term of operation, the total Generating Facility Capacity, and the mode of operation for energy production (common or singular operation). Monitoring and Consent Agreement shall mean an agreement that defines the terms and conditions applicable to a Generating Facility acquiring Net Zero Interconnection Service. The Monitoring and Consent Agreement will list the roles and responsibilities of an Interconnection Customer seeking to interconnect with Net Zero Interconnection Service and Transmission Owner to maintain the total output of the Generating Facility inside the parameters delineated in the GIA. Net Zero Interconnection Service shall mean a form of ER Interconnection Service that allows an Interconnection Customer to alter the characteristics of a Generating Facility in Commercial Operation, with the consent of Interconnection Customer for that existing Generating Facility, at the same POI such that the net MW capability remains the same. GIP 3.2 Identification of Types of Interconnection Services. At the time the Interconnection Request is submitted, Interconnection Customer must request NR Interconnection Service, ER Interconnection Service or Net Zero Interconnection Service, as described; provided, however, any Interconnection Customer requesting NR Interconnection Service may also request that it be concurrently studied as an ER Interconnection Service, up to the point when an Interconnection Facilities Study for Network Upgrades commences. Interconnection Customer may then elect to proceed with NR Interconnection Service or to proceed under a lower level of Interconnection Service to the extent that only certain upgrades will be completed Net Zero Interconnection Service The Product. Net Zero Interconnection Service is conditional ER Interconnection Service that allows an Interconnection Customer to increase the gross generating capability at the same Point of Interconnection of an existing Generating Facility without increasing the existing Generating Facility Capacity at that Point of Interconnection. Net Zero Interconnection Service does not convey any right to deliver electricity to any specific customer or Point of Delivery.

2 The Study. The Interconnection Study for Net Zero Interconnection Service consists of reactive power, short circuit/fault duty, and stability analyses. Steady-state (thermal/voltage) analyses may be performed as necessary to ensure that all required reliability conditions are studied. The Interconnection Study will identify the Interconnection Facilities required and the Network Upgrades necessary to address reliability issues associated with the Interconnection Facilities. Paragraph in 3.3 Valid IR A request for Net Zero Interconnection Service made by an Interconnection Customer which is not the owner or a subsidiary of the owner of the existing Generating Facility must include with the application an executed Energy Displacement Agreement. Any request for Net Zero Interconnection Service must include with the application a memorandum of understanding with the Transmission Owner to enter a Monitoring and Consent Agreement upon execution of a GIA. If at any time prior to execution of the GIA the Energy Displacement Agreement or memorandum of understanding required above is no longer in effect, the Interconnection Request for Net Zero Interconnection Service shall be deemed to have been withdrawn Additional Requirements for a Net Zero Interconnection Request application A request for Net Zero Interconnection Service made by an Interconnection Customer must meet the requirements listed in section above, plus the following requirements: 1. The existing Generating Facility must request that MISO post on its website that it is willing to enter into a Net Zero arrangement with a suitable proposal. Such posting will include the name of the existing generator, the state and county of the existing generator, and a valid address and phone number to contact the representative of the existing generator. Such posting must be in place for sixty (60) days prior to the Transmission Provider receiving an Interconnection Request for Net Zero Interconnection Service at that existing generator. Interconnection Requests received less than sixty (60) days of the posting will receive an Initial Queue Date of sixty-one (61) days after the posting. 2. The Interconnection Customer must include the System Impact Study performed for the existing Generating Facility with its application. Formatted: Indent: Left: 1.75", No bullets or numbering

3 Transmission Provider will use that System Impact Study to appropriately scope the Interconnection Customer s System Impact Study described in Section 8.3 of this GIP. 3. If the Interconnection Customer is not the owner or a subsidiary of the owner of the existing Generating Facility the Interconnection Customer must include with the Interconnection Request an executed Energy Displacement Agreement in the form of _[Pointer to Pro Forma EDA inclusionappendix 10 of the GIP]_ to be effective upon execution of a GIA and must remain in effect during the term of the GIA. 4. Any request for Net Zero Interconnection Service must include with the Interconnection Request an executed Monitoring and Consent Agreement in the form of _[Pointer to Pro Forma MCA inclusionappendix 9 of the GIP] with the Transmission Owner, to be effective upon execution of a GIA and must remain in effect during the term of the GIA. 5. If at any time prior to execution of the GIA the Energy Displacement Agreement or Monitoring and Consent Agreement required above is no longer in effect, the Interconnection Request for Net Zero Interconnection Service shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. 6.2 Scope of Interconnection Feasibility Study. Upon the determination by Transmission Provider of a valid Interconnection Request, including requests for Net Zero Interconnection Service, Transmission Provider shall commence the performance of the Interconnection Feasibility Study. The Interconnection Feasibility Study shall preliminarily evaluate the impact of the proposed Interconnection Request on the Transmission System. The Interconnection Feasibility Study will consider the Base Case as well as all generating facilities (and with respect to subparts iii, iv and v), any identified Network Upgrades, Distribution Upgrades and Generator Upgrades that, on the date the Interconnection Feasibility Study is commenced: (i) are interconnected to the Transmission System or Distribution System, as applicable; (ii) are interconnected to Affected Systems and may have an impact on the Interconnection Request; (iii) where known by Transmission Provider, have an executed interconnection agreement to interconnect to the Distribution System or Affected System; (iv) have a pending Interconnection Request to interconnect to the Transmission System being evaluated in the Definitive Planning Phase or (v) have executed a GIA or requested that an unexecuted GIA be filed and is filed

4 with FERC. The Interconnection Feasibility Study will consist of a power flow and may include limited stability analysis of known stability issues. The Interconnection Feasibility Study will provide a list of apparent reliability and operating issues. Paragraph in 8.3 Interconnection System Impact Studies for Net Zero Interconnection Service requests will consist of short circuit and stability analyses as described above in this Section 8.3. If Transmission Provider determines upon a review of the Interconnection Studies performed for the existing Generating Facility in Commercial Operation (against which the Net Zero Interconnection Service is sought) that power flow analyses are required, then the system impact study may include such analyses as well.
