Common use of Increases in Generating Capacity or Energy Output Clause in Contracts

Increases in Generating Capacity or Energy Output. All increases in the capacity or energy output of any generation facility interconnected with the Transmission System, other than wind-powered and other non-synchronous generating facilities, shall be designed with the ability to maintain a composite power delivery at continuous rated power output at a power factor for all incremental MW of capacity or energy output, of at least 1.0 (unity) to 0.90 lagging. Wind-powered generation facilities and other non-synchronous generation facilities, if determined in the System Impact Study to be required for the safety or reliability of the Transmission System, shall be designed with the ability to maintain a composite power delivery at continuous rated power output at a power factor for all incremental MW of capacity or energy output, of at least 1.0 (unity) to 0.95 lagging. The power factor requirement associated with increases in capacity or energy output of more than 20 MW to synchronous generation facilities interconnected with the Transmission System shall be measured at the generator’s terminals. The power factor requirement associated with increases in capacity or energy output of 20 MW or less to synchronous generation facilities and all increases to wind- powered and non-synchronous generation facilities interconnected to the Transmission System shall be measured at the Point of Interconnection.
