OEB issues letter making changes to Appendix C of the Distributed Energy Resources Connection Procedures (DERCP)

The OEB is making changes to Appendix C of the DERCP as part of its ongoing DER Connections Review initiative. These changes will come into effect on September 18, 2023. The new information in the Appendix C will offer customers, who consider applying to connect a DER to a distribution system (i.e., applicants), valuable insights into potential connection complexities and risks related to available capacity, project costs and timelines. This additional information will enable customers to make more informed decisions before proceeding with formal connection requests.

For further details, see the OEB letter along with the new template forms and examples below.
