SOLUTIONS
Solar & Energy Storage Companies
Are your internal processes and external relationships strong enough to effectively manage interconnection challenges? If not, EquinoxDG can help your business reduce risk and increase its competitiveness.
Organizational Strategy
Forward-thinking solar and energy storage companies recognize interconnection as a core business function that benefits from definition across the organization. By identifying risks and clarifying accountabilities within each business unit, company leadership can minimize the disruption DER interconnection poses and can determine the appropriate level of engagement in regulation of these processes.
EquinoxDG helps align interconnection requirements and risks with sales, project development, operations, customer service, and other business functions, improving forecasting, customer communication, and execution. This integrated approach enables companies to manage interconnection uncertainty more effectively while supporting scalable, sustainable growth.
Process Optimization
While interconnection challenges are often a result of inadequate regulations or utility practices, the internal processes of DER companies can contribute to those challenges by either not being fully informed by existing interconnection requirements or by lacking clear accountabilities.
EquinoxDG helps assess how interconnection requirements are managed across project lifecycles, identifies inefficiencies and points of risk, and develops clearly defined workflows and escalation strategies to reduce delays, improve predictability, and enable teams to navigate utility interconnection processes more effectively.
Dispute Resolution
Companies may be reluctant to escalate a project to an informal or formal dispute with the utility due to concerns about whether taking such an action may impact their working relationship. Dispute resolution is a fundamental tool for ensuring fair treatment of customers, and EquinoxDG supports DER companies in addressing interconnection disputes with utilities in a constructive, solution-oriented manner.
We help identify the technical, procedural, and regulatory drivers of stalled or disputed projects, develop effective escalation strategies, and provide clear guidance on how to engage productively with utilities and regulators.
