The contractual relationship
Interconnection agreements organize a facility’s connection to the grid. Check the signatories and definitions to establish the parties and their roles. A data center, generator, transmission owner and system operator are distinct actors.
Four sets of terms
- Boundary: Where is the connection point, and who owns, controls and maintains each asset?
- Capacity: What operating conditions are permitted, and when does expansion trigger further review?
- Costs: Who pays for construction, upgrades and continuing services?
- Operation: How are metering, protection, outages and fault responses coordinated?
