Surplus Interconnection Service Requests Clause Samples

Surplus Interconnection Service Requests. Studies for Surplus Interconnection Service shall consist of reactive power, short circuit/fault duty, stability analyses, and any other appropriate studies. Steady-state (thermal/voltage) analyses may be performed as necessary to ensure that all required reliability conditions are studied. If the Surplus Interconnection Service was not studied under off-peak conditions, off-peak steady state analyses shall be performed to the required level necessary to demonstrate reliable operation of the Surplus Interconnection Service. If the original System Impact Study or Phase Two Cluster Study are not available for the Surplus Interconnection Service, both off-peak and peak analysis may need to be performed for the existing Generating Facility associated with the request for Surplus Interconnection Service. The reactive power, short circuit/fault duty, stability, and steady-state analyses for Surplus Interconnection Service will identify any additional Interconnection Facilities and/or Network Upgrades necessary.

Surplus Interconnection Service Requests. ‌ Surplus Interconnection Service Requests may be made by the existing Interconnection Customer whose Generating Facility is already interconnected or one of its affiliates. Surplus Interconnection Service Requests also may be made by another Interconnection Customer. Transmission Provider shall provide a process for evaluating Interconnection Requests for Surplus Interconnection Service. Studies for Surplus Interconnection Service shall consist of reactive power, short circuit/fault duty, stability analyses, and any other appropriate studies. Steady-state (thermal/voltage) analyses may be performed as necessary to ensure that all required reliability conditions are studied. If the Surplus Interconnection Service was not studied under off-peak conditions, off-peak steady state analyses shall be performed to the required level necessary to demonstrate reliable operation of the Surplus Interconnection Service. If the original Interconnection System Impact Study is not available for the Surplus Interconnection Service, both off-peak and peak analysis may need to be performed for the existing Generating Facility associated with the Surplus Interconnection Service Request. The reactive power, short circuit/fault duty, stability, and steady-state analyses for Surplus Interconnection Service will identify any additional Interconnection Facilities and/or Network Upgrades necessary. All notifications and requests for Surplus Interconnection Service shall be submitted utilizing Appendix 1 to this LGIP and in accordance with Transmission Provider’s business practice(s) posted on its OASIS website, and shall be processed outside of the interconnection queue. In order to deem a Surplus Interconnection Service Request valid and complete, a deposit of $25,000 must be received by Transmission Provider. The Surplus Interconnection Service Request shall be reviewed to determine whether it qualifies as such, including but not limited to whether the existing Point of Interconnection has unused capacity equal to or greater than the requested surplus capacity. Transmission Provider will notify the Surplus Interconnection Service Customer as to whether its Surplus Interconnection Service Request is valid, as further described in Section 3.3.2 below. If the Surplus Interconnection Service Request is not valid, the notification to the Surplus Interconnection Service Customer will include an explanation of why it is not valid. Once a Surplus Interconnection Service Request has been...
