Small Generator Interconnection Agreements and Procedures

Order 792 updated the small generator interconnection procedures to better accommodate new types of distributed energy resources, including solar photovoltaic systems, fuel cells, and energy storage devices. The order clarified how the simplified and fast-track interconnection processes apply to different technologies and updated the pro forma Small Generator Interconnection Agreement to reflect changes in the industry since the original Order 2006. These revisions helped streamline the interconnection process for the rapidly growing market of small-scale distributed generation resources.
