1.The relevant system operator shall assess the compliance of a power-generating module with the requirements applicable under this Regulation, throughout the lifetime of the power-generating facility. The power-generating facility owner shall be informed of the outcome of this assessment.
For type A power-generating modules, the relevant system operator may rely upon equipment certificates issued by an authorised certifier for this assessment.
2.The relevant system operator shall have the right to request that the power-generating facility owner carry out compliance tests and simulations according to a repeat plan or general scheme or after any failure, modification or replacement of any equipment that may have an impact on the power-generating module's compliance with the requirements of this Regulation.
The power-generating facility owner shall be informed of the outcome of those compliance tests and simulations.
3.The relevant system operator shall make publicly available a list of information and documents to be provided as well as the requirements to be fulfilled by the power-generating facility owner within the framework of the compliance process. The list shall cover at least the following information, documents and requirements:
(a)all the documentation and certificates to be provided by the power-generating facility owner;
(b)details of the technical data on the power-generating module of relevance to the grid connection;
(c)requirements for models for steady-state and dynamic system studies;
(d)timeline for the provision of system data required to perform the studies;
(e)studies by the power-generating facility owner to demonstrate the expected steady-state and dynamic performance in accordance with the requirements set out in Chapters 5 and 6 of Title IV;
(f)conditions and procedures, including the scope, for registering equipment certificates; and
(g)conditions and procedures for the use of relevant equipment certificates issued by an authorised certifier by the power-generating facility owner.
4.The relevant system operator shall make public the allocation of responsibilities between the power-generating facility owner and the system operator for compliance testing, simulation and monitoring.
5.The relevant system operator may totally or partially delegate the performance of its compliance monitoring to third parties. In such cases, the relevant system operator shall continue ensuring compliance with Article 12, including entering into confidentiality commitments with the assignee.
6.If compliance tests or simulations cannot be carried out as agreed between the relevant system operator and the power-generating facility owner due to reasons attributable to the relevant system operator, then the relevant system operator shall not unreasonably withhold the operational notification referred to in Title III.
