  •  NERC

On March 19th, NERC submitted to FERC the Request for Approval of Proposed Revisions to the Rules of Procedure to Address Unregistered Inverter Based Resources and Request for Expedited Review. NERC requested that the Commission issue a 30-day public comment period followed by a 60 day review period (approximately June 19, 2024). NERC proposes to update the Generator Owner and Generator Operator (“GO” and “GOP”) Registry Criteria to include a new sub-category (“Category 2 GOs” and “Category 2 GOPs”) of entities that own or operate non-BES inverter based generating resources that

    • that either have or contribute to an aggregate nameplate capacity of greater than or equal to 20 MVA,
    • connected through a system designed primarily for delivering such capacity to a common point of connection at a voltage greater than or equal to 60 kV.
