When all currently registered storage tanks at a facility are purchased and all tanks remain at that facility, the new owner must promptly submit an amended Registration/Permitting Form with all
Starting in May 2025, NERC will require all inverter-based resources (IBRs) with an aggregate nameplate capacity of 20 MVA or more—connected at 60 kV or higher—to register as a Generator Owner (GO) and/or Generator
Historically, NERC registration was only required for facilities above 75 MVA and 100 kV, but these new thresholds mean that many mid-sized energy projects will now be subject to NERC oversight for the first time. The goal? Enhancing grid reliability as more inverter-based resources connect to the bulk power system.
Previously, only sites with 75 MVA (megavolt-amperes) interconnected at 100 kV or more were required to register. Under the new guidance, any IBR with just 20 MVA capacity interconnected at 60 kV or more must now register with NERC.
While the new NERC registration categories for IBRs are intended to improve grid stability, they represent a profound shift in how small and mid-sized renewable assets are regulated. Projects that have never had to worry about compliance reporting may soon find themselves in unfamiliar territory.
Historically, many solar and BESS resources were considered “non-BES” (Bulk Electric System) and were exempt from full-scale NERC registration.
The changes require more IBRs to register with NERC and comply with reliability standards previously reserved for larger, conventional power plants. For market participants who assumed their small-to-mid-size projects fell below the radar, these new regulations will have a significant impact.
As inverter-based resources (IBRs) such as solar generating assets and battery energy storage systems (BESS) continue to dominate the interconnection queue of new generation across U.S. power markets, the need for better oversight and reliability standards has come to the forefront.
