Grid Interconnection & Compliance Support

Interconnection, Modeling & Compliance for IBR-Dominated Systems

Grid Interconnection & Compliance Support for IBR and Data Centre Facilities

EdgeTunePower offers a purpose-built Data Centre Test Bed designed to help data centre developers, owners, and operators de-risk design decisions, validate control strategies, and accelerate deployment—before construction or grid energization.

Our test bed combines high-fidelity real-time digital simulation with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing to replicate real-world grid, load, and disturbance conditions at full operational scale. This allows stakeholders to verify performance, resilience, and compliance in a controlled, repeatable environment.

Regional Experience:

Our engineers are familiar with the technical and procedural nuances of each region:

ERCOT:

Nodal Operating Guide, NGR 245 (MQT), Resource Integration Guide (RIG), MWG templates.

PJM:

Manual 14G, FIS/QSA workflow, and dynamic model verification.

NYISO:

SRIS compliance, power flow and transient stability submission guidelines.

ISO-NE:

PP5-6 and PP5-7 compliance documentation.

MISO & SPP:

GIA technical package development and validation.

WECC:

Dynamic model validation under WECC composite load and generator modeling standards.

IESO & AESO:

Facility registration, parameter validation, and model submission for Canadian utilities.

Interconnection & Feasibility Studies (FIS)

vecteezy_a-showcase-of-renewable-energy-technology-featuring-wind_53754830.jpg

We support early-stage and formal interconnection submissions for:

Hybrid plants (BESS + PV, BESS + wind, multi-technology sites)

Non-hybrid IBR plants (standalone BESS, solar, wind, grid-forming inverters)

Data centre facilities with large dynamic loads, on-site generation, and energy storage

Scope includes:

Power flow and voltage impact assessments

Short-circuit and protection impact studies

Dynamic and transient stability screening

Utility and ISO-specific application support and responses

Model Development, Validation & MQT

We provide model development and Model Quality Testing (MQT) aligned with utility and ISO requirements:

Vendor and user-defined IBR models (RMS and EMT)

Benchmarking against manufacturer data and field measurements

Alignment of control behavior across PSCAD, PSS®E, and real-time platforms

Documentation suitable for audit, review, and approval

For data centres, this includes coordinated modeling of loads, UPS systems, generators, and BESS to ensure system-level accuracy.

Pre-Commissioning & Post-Commissioning Support

EdgeTunePower supports projects before and after energization to ensure measured performance matches approved models:

Pre-commissioning validation of control and protection behavior

Post-commissioning disturbance playback and response verification

Fine-tuning of models based on site measurements

Resolution support for utility or ISO follow-up questions

MOD-26, MOD-27 & Ongoing Compliance

We assist owners and operators with:

MOD-26: Verification of generator and IBR dynamic models

MOD-27: Validation of models against measured system response

Long-term model maintenance as plant configurations evolve

This applies to IBR plants and data centre facilities, particularly where on-site generation or BESS materially affects grid behavior.

Advanced Stability Studies: SSO & SSR

For inverter-dominated and hybrid systems, we provide specialized analysis of:

Small-Signal Oscillations (SSO) and control interaction risks

Sub-Synchronous Resonance (SSR) screening and mitigation

Grid-forming and grid-following control interactions

Converter-driven instability under weak-grid conditions

These studies are increasingly required for IBR plants and large data centre interconnections, especially in weak or congested networks.

Why EdgeTunePower

What differentiates EdgeTunePower is the direct coupling of interconnection studies with real-time simulation and HIL testing:

Models are validated against actual controller logic, not assumptions

Study results are defensible, repeatable, and field-aligned

Faster resolution of utility and ISO review comments

Reduced risk during commissioning and early operation

From IBR-based hybrid plants to mission-critical data centre facilities, EdgeTunePower ensures that what you submit, what you build, and what you operate behave consistently—across studies, testing, and real-world operation.
