How do I register for CPS?

Systems must be registered with both NEPOOL GIS and PTS.

 1. Register at NEPOOL GIS

All Clean Peak Resources must register to receive a NEPOOL GIS Clean Peak Energy Standard Identification Number. Clean Peak Resources are all included in the NEPOOL categories, but they are organized to accommodate the NEPOOL system, so it is important to understand what registration category your resource falls under prior to registration.

Please visit NEPOOL’s website to register with NEPOOL.

2. Register at PTS

All Clean Peak Resources must also register with the Massachusetts Production Tracking System (PTS). Existing resources may already be registered and can link their system information to the CPS Statement of Qualification Application (SQA). 

For more information on submitting a Statement of Qualification Application, please see How Do I Submit a CPS Statement of Qualification Application?

Special note on demand response resources, other than energy storage:

The MassCEC PTS registration platform is not yet ready to process non-energy storage demand response resources. These resources must apply directly with DOER by emailing [e-mail].  DOER provides these instructions for how to apply for CPS qualification for non-energy-storage demand response resources.

All other Clean Peak Resources can register with PTS now.
