Solar Builder Magazine reports on the updated ICA grid maps that will make a great leap forward from what has been available to date.
Read articleInterconnection is recognized by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) as a significant barrier in developing distributed energy resources (DER) and achieving statewide energy and emission goals. While interconnection of net energy metered (NEM) facilities has realized efficiencies, identically sized and similarly sited wholesale distributed generation (WDG), also known as front-of-meter (FOM), projects in investor-owned utility service territories suffer from interconnection processes that:
Interconnection processes serve two fundamental purposes:
Federal and state regulators are faced with the challenge of keeping interconnection procedures updated against a backdrop of evolving technology, new codes and standards, and considerably transformed market conditions.
The WDG Interconnection Pilot has the goal of facilitating interconnection for WDG/FOM projects.
Established by the Peninsula Advanced Energy Community (PAEC) Initiative
PAEC seeks to educate policymakers and stakeholders on beneficial reforms that will keep interconnection processes efficient and cost-effective while maintaining a safe and reliable electric grid.
