CAISO released its final draft proposal out of its Interconnection Process Enhancements, its initiative to address the “unprecedented and unsustainable interconnection request volumes” submitted in the current and prior study windows.

CAISO wants to stop taking new interconnection applications this year as it works through the “unprecedented volume” of requests submitted for the previous study period.

CAISO began a new stakeholder process to achieve "transformative improvements" to its overloaded interconnection queuing and management processes.

A new CAISO stakeholder initiative aims to overhaul its interconnection process to deal with a flood of requests to connect renewable resources and storage.
