Proposals for new energy projects across the country are stuck waiting for a long and cumbersome process known as “generator interconnection” to play out so they can connect to the power grid and start delivering electricity to homes and businesses. Ahead of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)'s upcoming two-day workshop that will explore further interconnection reforms, our webinar on September 4th at 10am ET will discuss specific steps FERC commissioners and staff, grid operators, and utilities can take to get America closer to an ideal interconnection process.

In a filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Southwest Power Pool has requested postponing the processing of 2024 interconnection requests and holding off on accepting new ones until the grid operator can catch up on previous clusters. Here's what's in the waiver request along with a closer look at SPP's generation mix and the renewables caught up in the queue, plus reaction from Lisa Barrett of Advanced Energy United: https://lnkd.in/eTnnhHdv

The Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA) supports the recommendations in this new report from Grid Strategies LLC and The Brattle Group that calls for upgrading transmission and improving interconnection processes to bring more clean energy to the grid. “Reliable, affordable electricity is critical to businesses, and a faulty interconnection process that fails to bring new resources online efficiently is a direct constraint to economic growth. This report identifies important interconnection reforms that will accelerate development of new clean energy resources that are critical to enabling economic activity across growing industries.” — Kyle Davis, CEBA's senior director of federal affairs
⚡️NEW REPORT: Amid growing demand for electricity, a report released today by Grid Strategies LLC and The Brattle Group proposes reforms to generator #interconnection, the process by which new, large-scale #energy resources are connected to #transmission grids. The report, co-commissioned by Advanced Energy United and Solar and Storage Industries Institute and endorsed by the Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA), provides recommendations to advance a new vision of the interconnection process, offering cost transparency, schedule certainty, and process efficiencies. The reforms presented in the report come ahead of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)’s upcoming two-day workshop on generation interconnection. The reforms are intended to build upon the new rules FERC issued last year to power markets to improve interconnection processes. Download the full report: https://lnkd.in/egV4s4ZE

If you've read about load growth and the resulting consternation over how we're going to meet growing electricity demand and make progress towards 100% clean, we've got a new essential resource for you! A report released today by The Brattle Group and Grid Strategies LLC proposes reforms to generator #interconnection, the process by which new, large-scale #energy resources are connected to #transmission grids. The report, co-commissioned by Advanced Energy United and Solar and Storage Industries Institute and endorsed by the Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA), provides recommendations to advance a new vision of the interconnection process, offering cost transparency, schedule certainty, and process efficiencies. The reforms presented in the report come ahead of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)’s upcoming two-day workshop on generation interconnection. The reforms are intended to build upon the new rules FERC issued last year to power markets to improve interconnection processes. We cannot settle for the status quo if we're going to meet the moment and bring on the amount of clean, affordable energy we need to power our growing economy.

Our new report on #Generator #Interconnection is out -- recommending improvements to the interconnection process beyond the Order 2023 requirements of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The specific recommendations include: 1️⃣ Providing upfront cost certainty by adopting an “entry fee” to be paid by interconnecting resources that reflects the actual cost of transmission upgrades needed to accommodate the interconnection of those resources. 2️⃣ Implementing fast-track processes to quickly utilize existing and pre-planned interconnection capacity. 3️⃣ Further optimizing the interconnection study process to identify the available headroom on the system, increase study efficiency, and remove unnecessary barriers. 4️⃣ Speeding up transmission project construction. Press release: https://lnkd.in/e9Bfu9ti Link to executive summary and full report: https://lnkd.in/dM3CpYQ7 Great collaboration with Rob Gramlich, Michael Hagerty, John Wilson, Richard Seide, Joe DeLosa III, and Yorgos Raskovic. The work was funded by Advanced Energy United and the Solar and Storage Industries Institute, with support from the Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA). #gridmodernization

Today, The Brattle Group and Grid Strategies LLC released a new report, Unlocking America’s Energy: How to Efficiently Connect New Generation to the Grid. The report co-commissioned by SI2 and Advanced Energy United offers important solutions to current interconnection delays and a roadmap to lowering consumer costs while adding new sources of electricity to the grid. "FERC Order No. 2023 made improvements to what is required of grid operators. However, additional structural changes to how new energy projects get connected to the power grid are needed now” said David Gahl, Executive Director of the Solar and Storage Industries Institute, which co-commissioned the report. “Adopting an ‘entry fee’ model that assigns transmission system upgrade costs commensurate with generator benefits to provide more up-front certainty about grid connection capability is a critical reform.” Read more about the report here: https://lnkd.in/eGDrGSSt
