Alaska Project Supports President Bidens Energy Goals, Baytex/Ranger Oil Combination First Of Its Kind In Almost A Year, International Energy Week Is A Lesson In Cognitive Dissonance. Altering the order of the generation interconnection queue could be a straight-forward, mechanical modification to incent more dispatchable generation," McAdams wrote in a memo "At present, there are 13,000 MW of natural gas generation projects and 42,000 MW of battery projects at various stages of the interconnection queue. But applying for and getting an interconnection agreement a long, expensive process is a key step in the development of any new electric power generation. This section offers steps to guide Interconnecting Entities (IEs) and Resource Entities (REs) through the interconnection process for new or modified generation interconnections within the ERCOT system. Once a planned Generation Resource has met the requirements of Planning Guide Section 6.9 - Addition of Proposed Generation to the Planning Models, it may be registered with ERCOT. "For ERCOT wind/solar development projects, the primary driving factor impacting basis differentials, transmission congestion and curtailment is queued generation. Clean power interconnection queues in the seven leading US regional grids ballooned by the end of 2022 to 1TW of projects, gravely illustrating one of the major issues slowing the countrys energy transition and adding urgency to reform efforts, according to the American Clean Power Association (ACP). massive solar energy plant produces clean renewable energy for a sustainable energy future right outside Austin , TX in June 2016 on a partly cloudy day with plenty of sunshine. 84 0 obj <>stream .
