ERCOT NOGRR-245 Compliance Activities After April 1, 2025

While IBR resource entities should have filed their ERCOT RFI DocuSign submissions and any exemption or extension requests by April 1, 2025, NOGRR-245 compliance remains an ongoing priority. Several project types require continued attention to ensure full alignment with NOGRR-245 

• Legacy Projects (SGIA signed before August 1, 2024): Projects that are capable of meeting NOGRR-245 requirements by December 31, 2025, but have yet to maximize ride-through capabilities, regardless of exemptions granted. 
• Legacy Projects with Extensions: Projects with an ERCOT-approved extension that must still comply by their new deadline. 
• New Projects (SGIA signed after August 1, 2024): Projects that have not maximized ride-through capabilities or finalized inverter and BoP equipment ride-through settings. 
• New Projects with IEEE-2800 Extensions: Projects granted an extension for meeting IEEE-2800 Sections 5, 7, and 9 requirements. 

Significant work is still required between now and December 31, 2025 (or the ERCOT-granted extension date). Most sites will need to: 

• Develop optimal ride-through settings: Ensure inverters, turbines, and substation equipment are configured to maximize ride-through capabilities. 
• Submit model packages: Provide ERCOT with a proposed model package demonstrating maximum ride-through capability before implementing any field changes. 
• Complete field implementation: Apply setting changes in the field by December 31, 2025, or by the ERCOT-granted extension deadline.
• Ensure your IBR facilities are prepared for the primary NOGRR-245 compliance deadline (December 31, 2025, or the ERCOT-granted extension date).
