- The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Friday rejected an amended interconnection service agreement, or ISA, that would have facilitated expanded power sales to a co-located Amazon data center from a nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania that is majority owned by Talen Energy.
- On a 2-1 vote, with FERC commissioners Mark Christie and Lindsay See in the majority, the agency found that the PJM Interconnection, which filed the amended ISA, failed to show that provisions in the agreement that contravene the grid operator’s existing, or pro forma, ISA were needed due to “specific reliability concerns, novel legal issues or other unique factors.”
- In a dissent, FERC Chairman Willie Phillips said the decision threatened national security and grid reliability. “In failing to accept the agreement, we are rejecting protections that the interconnected transmission owner says will enhance reliability while also creating unnecessary roadblocks to an industry that is necessary for our national security,” Phillips said. FERC commissioners David Rosner and Judy Chang didn’t participate in the case.
