Dive Brief:
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Tuesday approved the PJM Interconnection’s proposal for an “expedited interconnection track” for large generating projects, rejecting concerns raised by Vistra, state regulators and others.
Under the process, PJM will consider up to 10 interconnection requests a year on a fast-track basis for new or uprated capacity resources of at least 250 MW that can come online within three years. The process is set to expire at the end of 2027.
“The EIT proposal will help address PJM’s near-term resource adequacy needs by establishing a separate, time-limited, expedited interconnection process for a limited number of resources that are able to bring significant capacity onto the system in the near-term,” FERC said.
