Class Year Study definition

Class Year Study means a Class Year Interconnection Facilities Study as that term is defined in OATT Section 25 (OATT Attachment S).
Class Year Study means a study conducted by the ISO or a third party consultant for the Developer to determine a list of facilities (including Connecting Transmission Owner’s Attachment Facilities, Distribution Upgrades, System Upgrade Facilities and System Deliverability Upgrades as identified in the Interconnection System Reliability Impact Study), the cost of those facilities, and the time required to interconnect the Large Generating Facility or Class Year Transmission Project with the New York State Transmission System or with the Distribution System. The scope of the study is defined in Section 30.8 of the Large Facility Interconnection Procedures in Attachment X to the ISO OATT.

  • If the LGIA is executed prior to the completion of the Class Year Study, the Developer must agree, in the LGIA, that in the Class Year decision process, it will accept the Project Cost Allocation and post Security for any System Upgrade Facilities that are identified and cost allocated in the Class Year Study even if such Project Cost Allocations exceed the estimates included in the LGIA and include equipment not identified in the LGIA.

  • To the extent that upgrades or cost estimates in the Class Year Study differ from the amounts or descriptions in the LGIA, the Developer shall work with the ISO and Connecting Transmission Owner to promptly amend the LGIA as needed.

  • The Developer executing an LGIA prior to the completion of a Class Year Study cannot participate as an Installed Capacity Supplier until after the Class Year Study is completed and (1) the project is deemed deliverable and accepts its deliverable megawatts; or (2) the Developer accepts its Project Cost Allocation and posts Security for any required System Deliverability Upgrades.

  • To the extent the ISO identifies alternative potential System Deliverability Upgrades in the System Reliability Impact Study, the Developer may elect which System Deliverability Upgrades to be evaluated in the Class Year Study.

  • The Class Year Study schedule shall contain major milestones to facilitate the tracking of the progress of each Class Year Project.

  • When a Developer or Interconnection Customer requests entry into the Class Year Study, it shall provide with its request for entry either (i) a demonstration that the project satisfies the applicable regulatory milestones described in Section 25.6.2.3.1.1 of Attachment S or (ii) notice that it will submit a qualifying contract pursuant to Section 25.6.2.3.1 of Attachment S to the OATT or a two-part deposit consisting of $100,000 plus $3,000/MW deposit as required by Section 25.6.

  • The Developer has executed a Class Year Study Agreement for its Large Generating Facility to enter into the Class Year that commences after the completion of Class Year 2015.

  • A study that a Developer may elect to pursue if the Class Year Deliverability Study identifies the need for a new System Deliverability Upgrade (i.e., a System Deliverability Upgrade not previously identified and cost allocated in a Class Year Study and not substantially similar to a System Deliverability Upgrade previously identified and cost allocated in a Class Year Study) that requires additional study.

  • Before undertaking Trial Operation of the Large Generating Facility, the Developer must accept the cost allocated to the Large Generating Facility for SUFs through the Class Year Study that commences after the completion of Class Year 2015 and post any Security or make any payment required pursuant to Attachment S of the NYISO OATT.


More Definitions of Class Year Study

Class Year Study for Class Year 2017 identified the transmission system of Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation d/b/a National Grid (“National Grid”) as an Affected System in connection with the interconnection of the Large Generating Facility. The Class Year Study indicated that National Grid would need to coordinate the protection of its system based on the interconnection of the Large Generating Facility. The Class Year Study estimated the cost of work related to National Grid’s system at $20,000, which costs were included in the Project Cost Allocation. The Developer accepted its Project Cost Allocation and posted the related Security. The Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner shall coordinate with National Grid, and enter into any required study agreement with National Grid, concerning National Grid’s evaluation of the impacts of the interconnection on its system. If National Grid determines that physical upgrades are required on its system to coordinate system protection, the Developer, National Grid, the Connecting Transmission Owner, and the NYISO will enter into an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction Agreement to address this work. The Developer shall be responsible for the costs associated with National Grid’s work; provided, however, that any costs that are above the Project Cost Allocation identified in the Class Year Study and accepted by the Developer shall be allocated in accordance with Section 25.8.6 of Attachment S of the NYISO OATT.
