Firm Hosting Capacity vs. Flexible Interconnections

The Grid Capacity Challenge Facing Utilities 

Demand for distributed energy resources (DERs) and large loads like data centers is rapidly exceeding available hosting capacity across distribution networks. As a result, utilities are facing: 

  • Growing interconnection queues 
  • Increased curtailment 
  • Project delays and cancellations 
  • Rising infrastructure costs 
  • Extending equipment lead times 

Traditional solutions rely on major grid upgrades that can take months or years to complete and require significant capital investment. Meanwhile, developers and large-load customers are left waiting, delaying critical energy and business initiatives. 

Flexible interconnection provides a smarter, faster solution.
