FAQS 4

How many new power generation & energy storage are in interconnection queues?

The amount of new power generation and energy storage in interconnection queues across the US has surged over the last decade, with over 2,600 GW of total capacity now actively seeking interconnection. This represents a 6-fold increase since 2014 (Figure 1).

How does interconnection crisis affect EPC projects?

The interconnection crisis stems from multiple converging factors that directly impact EPC project timelines and profitability. Infrastructure Constraints: The existing transmission grid cannot accommodate the surge in renewable energy projects without significant upgrades.

Why do we need a grid connection study?

Substantial adoption of wind, solar, and storage technologies is essential to meet decarbonization goals. The grid connection study process, which is meant to ensure the reliability of a changing electricity system, has become backlogged due to a rapid increase of project proposals coupled with limited available transmission capacity.

Why is grid infrastructure important?

The reliable and accessible electricity supply to meet increased power demands required by electrification of transport, heating and cooling, and industry, together with the surge of the information technology electricity needs, will be based on grid infrastructure. However, deploying grid infrastructure is not done overnight.
