  • The Study Process shall be used by an Interconnection Customer proposing to interconnect its Generating Facility with the Utility's System if the Generating Facility exceeds the size limits for the Section 3 Fast Track Process, is not certified, or is certified but did not pass the Fast Track Process or the 20 kW Inverter Process.

  • Pursuant to the M-MIP Fast Track Process Section 9.5 and the Study Process Section 11.5, the Interconnection Customer shall provide the Area EPS Operator, at the Interconnection Customer’s option, a guarantee, letter of credit or other form of security that is reasonably acceptable to the Area EPS Operator and is consistent with the Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code.

  • These type interconnection requests will be reviewed under the Section 4 Study Process due to the highly technical nature of the Area Network grid setup.

  • Request for: Fast Track Process Study Process (All Generating Facilities larger than 2 MW must use the Study Process.) Processing Fee or Deposit Fast Track Process – Non-Refundable Processing Fees ─ If the Generating Facility is 20 kW or smaller, the fee is $100.

  • If the Interconnection Request is submitted under the Study Process, whether a new submission or an Interconnection Request that did not pass the Fast Track Process, the Interconnection Customer shall submit to the Utility an Interconnection Facilities Deposit Charge of $10,000 plus $1 per kWAC inclusive of a $1000 fee to administer the Interconnection Request study process.
