Problem
Utilities, transmission operators, ISOs, RTOs, and developers face lengthy interconnection backlogs caused by fragmented data, manual workflows, and siloed processes, which delay the integration of new generation and load projects.
Solution
GridUnity provides a cloud‑based SaaS platform that automates the entire interconnection life cycle—from application intake through commissioning. The system consolidates data from multiple stakeholders into a single, real‑time view, enabling automated routing, validation, and status tracking. Built‑in analytics and predictive models surface potential bottlenecks and cost‑allocation insights, helping participants make faster, data‑driven decisions. Configurable APIs allow seamless integration with existing enterprise and grid management systems, preserving prior investments while meeting evolving federal and state compliance requirements. Security and compliance are enforced through NIST 800‑171 and SOC 2 Type II controls, ensuring that sensitive grid data remains protected.
Target Audience
Primary customers are transmission owners, ISOs/RTOs, distribution utilities, and independent energy developers that need to manage large volumes of interconnection applications efficiently.
