Technological Change Procedure. At any time prior to the return of the executed Interconnection Facility Study Agreement to Transmission Provider, Interconnection Customer may request a modification under this Section 4.4.6, for incorporation of a technological advancement into its generating facility. To timely perfect that request, Interconnection Customer shall submit the following to Transmission Provider:
Technological Change Procedure. The Joint Agreement Process in Article 39 will apply to new technologies and must be worked through in a timely manner. Issues that pertain to this article that are significant will be reviewed by the President of Local S6 and/or District Lodge #4 or its designee.
Technological Change Procedure. The technological change procedure included in this Section 5.4.6 will be followed to assess whether Interconnection Customer’s proposed modification is a Material Modification.
Technological Change Procedure. Prior to the return of an executed Facilities Study Agreement, the only modification permitted other than what is allowed per Section 4.4 - Modifications without potentially affecting the Interconnection Customer’s Queue Position, is a Permissible Technological Advancement. The Technological Change Procedure as outlined below sets forth the requirements for an Interconnection Customer to submit a Permissible Technological Advancement Request (PTAR) and the Transmission Provider’s responsibilities for determining whether the Interconnection Customer’s proposed technological advancement is a Permissible Technological Advancement.
Technological Change Procedure. Following delivery of the initial draft of the System Reliability Impact Study report to the Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner(s) but prior to the return of an executed Interconnection Facilities Study Agreement to the ISO, a technological change that satisfies the definition of a Permissible Technology Advancement or that the ISO determines is not a Material Modification under this Technological Change Procedure is a permissible modification that will not result in a Developer losing its Queue Position if it elects to proceed with the requested modification.
Technological Change Procedure. An Interconnection Customer may propose a technological advancement for a Generating Facility it has in the interconnection queue by submitting a request to the Transmission Provider at any time prior to execution of the Interconnection Facilities Study Agreement. The Transmission Provider will review the technological advancement request and determine if the proposal meets the definition of a Permissible Technological Advancement. The technological advancement request must be submitted in writing and include a description of the proposed technological advancement(s). The technological advancement request must demonstrate that the proposed incorporation of the technological advancement would result in electrical performance that is equal to or better than the electrical performance expected prior to the technology change and not cause any reliability concerns (i.e., materially impact the Transmission System with regard to short circuit capability limits, steady-state thermal and voltage limits, or dynamic system stability and response). The request must provide sufficient details necessary for the Transmission Provider to evaluate whether the change is a Material Modification and should include, but not be limited to, an updated one-line diagram and an updated submittal of Attachment A of Appendix 31 and Attachment A of Appendix 53 to the LGIP. If, after review of the request, the Transmission Provider is able to easily assess and determine that the proposed technological advancement will not change study outcomes, or otherwise change the Generating Facility’s effect on the Transmission Provider’s Transmission System, the request will be accepted and the change will be considered a Permissible Technological Advancement. If the Transmission Provider is not able to easily assess the proposed changes and determines that further studies are necessary, the Transmission Provider will notify the Interconnection Customer, who will be required to submit a formal application for evaluation under Section 4, as applicable. The Interconnection Customer must then within 5 days provide: 1) a study deposit of $10,000, and 2) any additional information that may be requested by the Transmission Provider necessary to complete the studies. The application will be deemed complete when the Transmission Provider has received the study deposit and all requested information from the Interconnection Customer. The Transmission Provider will perform the studies within 30 Calendar Day...
Technological Change Procedure. At any time after the submission of an Interconnection Request, but before the Interconnection Customer provides its confirmation to proceed with the Interconnection Facilities Study in accordance with Section 8.2, an Interconnection Customer may submit a written request to the Transmission Provider to evaluate a change to the technology of the Generating Facility to determine if the change is a Permissible Technological Advancement. Interconnection Customer must provide a deposit of $10,000 and all information necessary to allow Transmission Provider to perform its analysis, including, but not limited to: a description of the technological advancement being considered, a completed Generator Interconnection Data Form, and updated models in a format specified by the Transmission Provider.
