The Distribution Provider will not assume any responsibility for complying with mandatory reliability standards for such facilities and offers no opinion as to whether the Interconnection Customer must register with NERC. If required to register with NERCplaced in service, the Interconnection Customer shall be responsible for complying with all Applicable Reliability Standards for the Interconnection Customer’s Interconnection Facilities and the Generating Facility up to the Point of Change of Ownership, as described in Section 4 of Appendix A of this GIAwill not achieve Full Capacity Deliverability Status.
(h) In its Interconnection Request, and during the course of the interconnection studies, the Interconnection Customer represented that the intended use and function of the storage component of the Generating Facility was to charge the storage component solely from the Generating Facility’s photovoltaic arrays, for the sole purpose of allowing generation and delivery to the ISO Grid at times other than would be possible without storage. As such, the Interconnection Customer understands and acknowledges that no evaluation has been performed for charging the storage component of the Generating Facility from the Distribution System, and that the storage component shall be charged utilizing only the output of the Generating Facility’s photovoltaic arrays, and that it shall not be charged from the Distribution System.
