Due to what it says is rising interest in community and rooftop solar in its northern Illinois region, ComEd has updated its hosting capacity map for solar developers to help streamline the process and meet demand.
Last month, ComEd says it received 2,250 new applications to interconnect with its electric system, bringing the total applications received this year to 21,952.
The 1,976 Distributed Energy Resource (DER) systems that ComEd completed in October represented 42 MW of DER generation capacity. There are 1,160 MW of DER interconnected to the ComEd system, including 460 MW from residential solar systems, 285 MW from community solar and 345 MW from commercial systems. This volume places a priority on providing solar developers access to current hosting capacity data, which is used to estimate the amount of DER that can be accommodated without major upgrades to the ComEd distribution system.
ComEd’s hosting capacity maps provide monthly estimates for distribution circuits at 34 kV and below that are sourced by a ComEd substation. The company also publishes hosting capacity maps for battery energy storage and for electric vehicle load, updated 20 times a year.
“Our updated hosting capacity map provides developers every month with near real-time information about solar projects in the development queue, which is key to identifying the best available location to interconnect their project to our grid,” says Mark Baranek, senior vice president of Technical Services, ComEd.

I’m not a financial pro, but here’s some advice:
Don’t live on a budget. Make a lot of money and live far beneath your means. What value does luxury actually bring to your life, especially if it makes you nervous about running out of cash?
As I told my kids when they were growing up, “Unless you’re completely shallow, showing off your money is an idiotic thing to do. You make false friends and have people glomming onto you to sell you stuff you really don’t need.”
Warren Buffett still lives in a modest house in Nebraska, a state in which he could buy an entire country. Maybe there is something about him and his values that could benefit you.
I see.
There’s not enough land in Spain to support rooftop and ground-mounted solar at a fraction of the cost.
LOL.
It’s possible that right now, there are other civilizations observing the human race, studying us from afar, and noticing our decline into savagery and eventual extinction by turning billionaires into trillionaires.
People say that the principal weakness of human beings is that we can’t plan for the future as a species. Dogs are arguably even worse, though they aren’t consumed with greed. They don’t plot the starvation of millions of other dogs so they themselves can have enough food to last a billion years.
As an elderly man, I’ll be leaving this planet soon, but I won’t cease pondering this until my heart stops beating.
