Grid Connection and Energy Studies

A new plant or load is not built until it is proven the grid can take it. A weak study turns into observations, months of delay and an investment that starts paying back late.

The question you bring

Can my solar plant connect to the grid?

You getConnection study

Who it is for

  • Generation investors and developers
  • Industries with self-generation (SGDA)
  • EPC contractors who need their client’s study

What is included

Scope with no fine print.

Prospect analysis and pre-feasibility

A first technical and economic answer before committing the investment.

FAQ

What we are often asked.

Do you guarantee approval?

Nobody can: it depends on the operator. We do guarantee a rigorous study, in the right format, and support until every observation is answered.

How long does it take?

It depends on size and available information. With the quote you get a staged schedule with deadlines we meet.
