The California ISO published the 2023 adjustment to the emergency interconnection maximum reimbursement for network upgrades and the annual inflation factor. The Current Emergency Interconnection Network Upgrade Maximum is available on the generator interconnection study webpage.
The ISO and participating transmission owners may implement an emergency interconnection study process based on the strict criteria in the California ISO Tariff Appendix DD Section 3.10. These criteria help ensure parties do not use the Emergency Interconnection process except in the very narrow circumstances where it is necessary. They also help ensure emergency interconnections do not negatively impact any existing customer in queue. Criterion (d) requires any emergency interconnection’s network upgrades to be below $1 million as escalated annually.
The 2023 adjusted emergency interconnection network upgrade maximum will apply to any emergency interconnection study reports published from Sept.1, 2023 to Aug. 31, 2024. |
