Reference:Large Generator Interconnection Agreement – Service Agreement No. 2535

On June 18, 2020, New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) and Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Con Edison) jointly filed an executed Large Generator Interconnection Agreement (LGIA) among NYISO, Con Edison, and NRG Berrians East Development LLC (NRG).[1] You state that NRG proposes to replace an existing generating facility in Queens County, New York, with a new facility consisting of a simple-cycle unit, which will continue to interconnect to certain facilities of Con Edison that are part of the New York State Transmission System. You state that the LGIA largely conforms to the language in the pro forma LGIA contained in Attachment X of NYISO’s Open Access Transmission Tariff, with non-conforming changes to accommodate related contractual agreements, among other changes.

Pursuant to the authority delegated to the Director, Division of Electric Power Regulation – East, under 18 C.F.R. § 375.307, your submittal is accepted for filing, effective June 4, 2020, as requested.

This acceptance for filing shall not be construed as constituting approval of the referenced filing or of any rate, charge, classification, or any rule, regulation, or practice affecting such rate or service contained in your filing; nor shall such acceptance be deemed as recognition of any claimed contractual right or obligation associated therewith; and such acceptance is without prejudice to any findings or orders which have been or may hereafter be made by the Commission in any proceeding now pending or hereafter instituted by or against NYISO or Con Edison.
