| Additional Information |
Connecticut's interconnection guidelines, approved in December 2007, apply to Connecticut Light and Power Company (CL&P) and United Illuminating Company (UI) and are for distributed energy systems up to 20 megawatts (MW) in capacity. The guidelines are modeled on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC) interconnection standards for small generators, and like FERC's standards, include provisions for three levels of systems: (1) Certified, inverter-based systems no larger than 10 kilowatts (kW) in capacity; (2) Certified systems no larger than 2 MW in capacity; and (3) All other systems no larger than 20 MW in capacity. |
