GridUnity, a provider of cloud-based interconnection and energy analytics for utilities and transmission service providers, announced that Southern California Edison (SCE) has selected its Interconnection Life Cycle Management (ILCM) platform.
As one of the nation’s largest electric utilities, SCE delivers power to 15 million people in 50,000 square miles across central, coastal and Southern California.
GridUnity’s ILCM application offers the ability to guide utility customers and staff through the tasks, activities, and analysis processes necessary to manage, transact and report on the fulfillment of interconnection requests and support program interactions throughout the process from application intake to electrification.
Featuring the ability to integrate with existing financial software systems and numerous other programs already in place, ILCM will enable customers to complete and track service requests from initiation through completion using the automated self-service portal.
“As we continue to roll out our interconnection software across the U.S., GridUnity has gained extensive experience implementing complex projects that unify processes across multiple stakeholder groups, improving communication, record-keeping, and information sharing,“ GridUnity CEO Brian Fitzsimons said. “As we configure the platform to meet the specific needs of SCE, we are confident that it will speed interconnection, increase accuracy, and reduce manual processing.”
In February, Southwest Power Pool (SPP), the Regional Transmission Organization (RTO) serving the central U.S., also selected GridUnity’s ILCM platform.
