The Program Administrator publishes Tips and Tricks to help support stakeholders in avoiding project applications from resulting in a Need Info request and delaying their review and approval.
- Large DG applications (including EEC and Public Schools) must include a fully executed interconnection agreement that is signed by both the customer and a representative of the interconnecting utility.
- The project address must be within the territory of the interconnecting utility indicated on the interconnection agreement. This information can be confirmed by checking the utility maps provided by the utility companies on their websites.
- For projects that require one, the interconnection agreement must be executed prior to the date the Part I application is submitted.
- Details such as customer name, project address, and system size must match between the interconnection agreement and the project application (though the size listed on the interconnection agreement may be larger than that listed on the application).
- An application for interconnection is not an executed interconnection agreement and does not meet this requirement.
