Delayed Interconnection Approvals
Definition
Interconnection request processing involves multi-stage reviews by NSPs and AEMO, including enquiries, applications, simulations and contracts, leading to manual delays and lost capacity from idle generation or transmission assets awaiting approval[2][4].
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: 20-40 hours/month per request in manual delays; lost sales from queues (industry standard 2-5% capacity utilisation loss)
- Frequency: Per connection project (ongoing for new generators/loads)
- Root Cause: Manual handling of enquiries, studies, model assessments and negotiations
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Electric Power Transmission players in Australia 🇦🇺 waste 20-40 hours/month per request on manual study management. Automation of interconnection request processing eliminates this capacity loss.
