In response to Green Lane Energy’s small generator interconnection request, Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is planning to integrate their 1.6-megawatt biogas generation project into its balancing authority (BA). The proposed point of interconnection is at the Parker Substation owned by Blachly Lane Electric Cooperative (Blachly-Lane). In order to integrate the proposed generation, Green Lane Energy would install—at their own expense—BPA approved metering and communications service equipment at the Green Lane Energy project site. BPA would commission and assume ownership of the metering equipment, which would be tested, energized, and calibrated by BPA. BPA would be responsible for the subsequent operation and maintenance of the metering equipment.
