Answer the following questions regarding the WEC farm that would be connected to a standard US power system grid assuming NERC and FERC compliance:  If the farm uses non-synchronous generators can it comply with the requirement to provide reactive power at the high-side of the generator substation as a condition of interconnection? High: The farm can comply. Med: The farm might require a derogation. Low: The farm cannot comply.  NERC and FERC requirements for interconnection include that the sustained reactive power capability shall meet or exceed +0.9 (producing) to-0.95 (absorbing) power factor based on the aggregated plant MW level. Can the wave farm comply? High: The farm can comply. Med: The farm might require a derogation. Low: The farm cannot comply.  Can the WEC farm meet all other NERC and FERC requirements for interconnection? High: The farm can comply. Med: The farm might require a derogation. Low: The farm cannot comply.  Does the WEC farm comply with flicker requirements? High: Flicker has been addressed and complies with requirements. Med: Flicker has been addressed but a derogation is required Low: Flicker bas not been addressed OR cannot comply with requirements  Does the farm have ride through capability for specified grid disturbances. High: The farm can comply. Med: The farm might require a derogation. Low: The farm cannot comply.  Does the farm have enhanced dynamic control to continue operating successfully with unbalanced or distorted grid voltages during faults High: The farm can comply. Med: The farm might require a derogation. Low: The farm cannot comply.
