CRESS · Backfeed and Additional Demand
What is the Backfeed Charge Rate?
Can additional demand from CGPP customer which have yet to be in operation participate in CRESS?
Referring to Clause 7.6 of the CRESS Guidelines, which outlines that "The RED shall also enter into Backfeed Agreement with the EUC to obtain electricity supply for the plant's own consumption, backfeed requirement during construction, and other and other usages".
i. Will there be restrictions in the Backfeed Agreement (or otherwise) to prevent a BESS from charging from the grid?
ii. If so, what nature will these restrictions be?
iii. Would the Backfeed Agreement be similar to the Electricity Supply Agreement TNB has with large power consumers, or in a reduced and simplified form?
