What is the process for connecting renewable generation to Union Power’s system?

  1. Read our interconnection documents
    • Interconnection Standard: The technical details which spell out how the renewable generator will be connected to our system.
    • Interconnection Agreement: This document is completed after both parties agree to the terms and conditions spelled out in the Interconnection Standard, the Interconnection Application has been received, and our engineering group has completed any analysis necessary for interconnection.
    • Interconnection Application: Similar to an application which indicates interest in connecting a renewable resource; this provides the technical details for our engineering group, and “gets the ball rolling.”
    • Rate Rider SQF: This is the rate that we will pay for energy delivered to our system from a renewable resource.
  2. Complete the Interconnection Application and Agreement and send to Union Power.
  3. Once an inspection has been completed, Union Power will change out the meter, and you will be ready to connect your renewable generator to UPC’s system.
