Summary

The Maryland Public Service Commission has issued emergency regulations establishing interconnection standards for small generator facilities. These regulations, codified under COMAR 20.50.09, aim to streamline the process for connecting smaller power generation sources to the grid.

What changed

This action introduces new requirements for how small-scale power generation projects connect to the state's electricity grid, likely impacting the speed and process for approving such interconnections.

Entities involved in developing or operating small generator facilities in Maryland must review these emergency regulations to ensure compliance with the new interconnection standards.

The effective date of these regulations is March 24, 2026.
