Curtailment for Establishing Baselines Clause Samples
The Curtailment for Establishing Baselines clause defines how temporary reductions in energy usage (curtailment) are handled when determining a facility's normal energy consumption baseline. In practice, this clause ensures that periods of abnormal curtailment—such as during maintenance or emergencies—are excluded from the data used to set the baseline, so that the baseline accurately reflects typical operations. This helps prevent skewed baselines, ensuring that future performance measurements and related obligations are fair and representative of normal conditions.
Curtailment for Establishing Baselines. [RESERVED]
Curtailment for Establishing Baselines. Upon request by the MILDEP, Project Owner agrees, during the first year of operations, to curtail wind turbine operations for a period of up to an aggregate of 30 hours for actions identified by the MILDEP such as establishing baselines, performing flight checks, or conducting tests. The MILDEP will attempt to schedule such curtailment during low- or no-wind situations identified by Project Owner’s meteorological data.
