DER Curtailment Analysis
DER Curtailment Analysis helps utilities, developers, and DERMS teams understand where, when, and why distributed energy resources will be curtailed, and what it costs.

Hosting Capacity and Headroom Screening
Identify feeders and substations where DER additions will run into thermal, voltage, or protection limits. Our screening approach maps available headroom across the system so curtailment exposure is visible before interconnection decisions are made.
Curtailment Risk Modeling
Estimate expected curtailment hours and energy for a proposed project under realistic grid conditions. Time-series analysis captures seasonal load patterns, coincident DER output, and system constraints to produce a credible curtailment profile rather than a worst-case guess.
Flexible Interconnection Strategies
Evaluate flexible interconnection and dynamic operating envelopes as alternatives to costly upgrades or outright denial. We quantify the tradeoff between limited curtailment and full network reinforcement so both utilities and developers can find the faster, cheaper path to energization.
DERMS Integration Support
Turn analysis into operations. Our team helps translate curtailment schemes into DERMS use cases, control logic, and monitoring requirements, grounded in real utility DERMS deployment experience.
Business Impact
Interconnect more DERs without compromising reliability. Developers gain revenue certainty by understanding curtailment exposure up front, and utilities reduce interconnection queue friction while deferring capital upgrades.
