Stakeholders Express Concern That CAISO’s Interconnection Scoring Criteria May Prioritize Load-Serving Entity Selection

The California Independent System Operator’s (CAISO) recently issued Interconnection Process Enhancements (IPE) final proposal provides heightened requirements to complete an interconnection request and relies on scoring criteria to determine which projects advance to the interconnection study process. Due to the proposed 150% cap on specific interconnection zones, not all interconnection requests in each queue will be able to advance to the interconnection study phase. The scoring criteria are intended to prioritize the most viable projects and meet the 150% cap.
