Dynamic Mapping of ERCOT Interconnection Process Gavin Dillingham, PhD Satish Ravindran P.E, CEM, LEED Green Assoc. HARC
Agenda • Interconnecting in Texas – Greater than 10 MW • Process Requirements • Introduce Interconnection Dynamic Mapping Tool
SECO DOE Project • Regulatory and Policy Barriers to CHP – Department of Energy and State Energy Conservation Office – SEP • Air Permitting • Stand-by Rates • Power Export • Interconnection
Interconnection > 10MW – Stakeholder interviews • Interconnection process > 10 MW is DEMANDING • Two thirds of projects in state > 10MW • Process times average 270 days to 1020 days • Process times average 270 days to 1020 days • ERCOT transmission infrastructure is strained- requires expensive upgrades • Unclear understanding of modeling requirements
Interconnection > 10MW – What we heard from ERCOT • Developers may use incorrect equipment – does not match with study • Uncertainty of modeling data required by developers developers • Incorrect understanding of process and documents • Timelines are not followed • Upgrades to infrastructure takes a long time • Telemetry not set up properly
Interconnection > 10 MW • Affects Project Design and Economics • Developers need deeper understanding of the technical requirements of process requirements of process • Solid understanding of market protocols and operating guides • Closer communication between TSP, ERCOT and developers
Process Requirements • Stringent ERCOT Compliance Review • Increasing Technical Data Requirements • Complex Facility studies • Complex Facility studies • Generator Modeling requirements differ for each project • Testing and Telemetry requirements
Process Flow Map
Online Interconnection Wizard • An interactive / simplified Users Guide • Avoid paperwork delays and incorrect submissions • A system to notify approaching deadlines • Avoid communication delays • Breaks complicated steps into simplified single task sub-steps
Online Interconnection Wizard • Keep track of timelines • Tips and Tricks based of feedbacks from other stakeholders –common pitfalls, incorrect information etc. information etc. • One place to manage multiple projects
