Applicable Reliability Standards Clause Samples
The 'Applicable Reliability Standards' clause defines which reliability standards must be followed by the parties involved in the agreement. Typically, this clause specifies the set of industry or regulatory standards—such as those established by NERC or other governing bodies—that apply to the operation, maintenance, or performance of equipment or services. By clearly identifying the relevant standards, the clause ensures that all parties understand their compliance obligations and helps prevent disputes related to differing interpretations of required reliability practices.
Applicable Reliability Standards. The requirements and guidelines of the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), the Applicable Reliability Council, and the Balancing Authority Area of the Distribution System to which the Small Generating Facility is directly interconnected, including the requirements adopted pursuant to Section 215 of the Federal Power Act.
Applicable Reliability Standards. A requirement approved by the FERC under section 215 of the Federal Power Act and enforced by WECC to provide for the reliable operation of the Bulk Power System as such term is defined in the Federal Power Act. The term includes requirements for the operation of the existing Bulk Power System facilities, including cyber security protection, and the design of planned additions or modifications to such facilities to the extent necessary for the reliable operation of the Bulk Power System.
Applicable Reliability Standards. The applicable requirements and guidelines of NERC, the Applicable Reliability Council, and the Balancing Authority Area of the Distribution System to which the Grand Crossing Development is directly interconnected, including the requirements pursuant to Section 215 of the Federal Power Act.
Applicable Reliability Standards. Any applicable regulation, rule, order, law, standard, procedure or requirement issued by any local, state, regional or federal entity with jurisdiction over the operation and maintenance of a Party’s electric system or the Balancing Authority Area in which each Party’s transmission facilities reside, including but not limited to, the requirements and guidelines of NERC, WECC and the Balancing Authority Area in which each Party’s transmission facilities reside.
Applicable Reliability Standards. The criteria, requirements and guidelines of the North American Electric Reliability Council, the Northeast Power Coordinating Council, the New York State Reliability Council and related and successor organizations, or the Transmission District to which the Interconnection Customer’s Small Generating Facility is directly interconnected, as those criteria, requirements and guidelines are amended and modified and in effect from time to time; provided that no Party shall waive its right to challenge the applicability of or validity of any criterion, requirement or guideline as applied to it in the context of Attachment Z to the NYISO OATT and this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, this definition of Applicable Reliability Requirements shall supersede the definition of Applicable Reliability Standards set out in Attachment X of the NYISO OATT.
Applicable Reliability Standards. The requirements and guidelines of NERC, NPCC and the New England Control Area, including publicly available local reliability requirements of Interconnecting Transmission Owners or other Affected Systems. At-Risk Expenditure – Money expended for the development of the Generating Facility that cannot be recouped if the Interconnection Customer were to withdraw the Interconnection Request for the Generating Facility. At-Risk Expenditure may include, but is not limited to, money expended on: (1) costs of federal, state, local, regional and town permits, (ii) Site Control, (iii) site-specific design and survey, (iv) construction activities, and (v) non-refundable deposits for major equipment components. For purposes of this definition, At- Risk Expenditure shall not include costs associated with the Interconnection Studies. Base Case – Base power flow, short circuit and stability databases, including all underlying assumptions, and contingency lists provided by System Operator, Interconnecting Transmission Owner, and any Affected Party as deemed appropriate by the System Operator in accordance with applicable codes of conduct and confidentiality requirements; such databases and lists shall include all generation projects and transmission projects that are proposed for the New England Transmission System and any Affected System and for which a transmission expansion plan has been submitted and approved by the applicable authority and which, in the sole judgment of the System Operator, may have an impact on the Interconnection Request. Base Cases also include data provided by the Interconnection Customer, where applicable, to the Interconnecting Transmission Owner and System Operator to facilitate required Interconnection Studies. Business Day – Monday through Friday, excluding Federal Holidays. Capacity Capability Interconnection Standard (“CC Interconnection Standard”) – The criteria required to permit the Interconnection Customer to interconnect a Generating Facility seeking Capacity Network Resource Interconnection Service or an Elective Transmission Upgrade seeking Capacity Network Import Interconnection Service in a manner that avoids any significant adverse effect on the reliability, stability, and operability of the New England Transmission System, including protecting against the degradation of transfer capability for interfaces affected by the Generating Facility seeking Capacity Network Resource Interconnection Service or an Elective Transmission Upg...
