293 ENERGY LAW well as the standard form of the “Call Letter,” shall be announced by EMRA within six months as of the entry into force of the Amend- ing Regulation. As per Art. 7/8 added to the Regulation, generation facilities that have an installed power up to 10 kW shall be exclusively provided with 5 MW of connection capacity by TEIAS for each sub- station. If such capacity is met, then TEIAS’s opinion is required to have additional capacity allocated. Such additional capacity shall be allocated in accordance with TEIAS’s direction. Another connection power limitation introduced by the Amend- ing Regulation is envisaged in subparagraph 12 of Art. 6 of the Regu- lation. Pursuant thereto, the installed power of wind and solar energy generation facilities shall not exceed thirty times of the connection agreement power of the consumption facilities that will be associated with such generation facilities. If the generation facilities wish to change subscription regarding their consumption facilities, the con- nection agreement power of the new consumption facility shall not be less than the connection power that was subject to the main connection agreement. Otherwise, such connection agreement shall be rendered void. The applications that are announced on the website of the related network operator, and which are deemed to be qualified for a connec- tion agreement call letter prior to the date of entry into force of the Amending Regulation, shall be exempt from this requirement, as well. Maximum Power Allocation Restriction Another novelty introduced by the Amending Regulation con- cerns the maximum amount of allocation to generation facilities. Ac- cording to the tenth subparagraph added to Art. 6 of the Regulation, the amount of installed power to be allocated to (i) any real or legal person active in wind or solar power generation, (ii) legal persons of which the persons stated under subparagraph (i) are shareholders either directly or indirectly, and (iii) legal persons controlled by the persons stated under subparagraph (i), shall not exceed 1 MW in each substation. Such limitations shall apply regardless of their numbers of consumption facilities.
