Understanding POI Interconnection Engineering

POI Interconnection Engineering focuses on the technical design and analysis required to connect a power facility to the grid at the Point of Interconnection (POI). This process involves coordinating protection systems, voltage levels, power flow, and equipment compatibility to meet utility and regional grid requirements.

A well-engineered POI.

• Protects grid stability

• Prevents equipment damage

• Ensures regulatory compliance

• Reduces approval delays

Without proper engineering, projects may face rejections, redesigns, or costly operational

risks.

The Importance of Substation Design Services

One of the most critical elements of grid connection is the substation. Substation Design Services provide the infrastructure needed to safely transfer power between generation facilities and the utility network.

Keentel Engineering delivers complete substation solutions, including

• Electrical and physical layouts

• Protection and control systems

• Grounding and safety design

• Relay coordination and automation

Our designs align with utility standards while allowing flexibility for future expansion and system upgrades.

Power System Studies That Ensure Grid Reliability

Before interconnection approval, utilities require extensive Power System Studies to understand how a new facility will impact the grid. These studies analyze performance under normal, contingency, and fault conditions.

Our power system studies include:

• Load flow and voltage analysis

• Short-circuit and fault current studies

• Transient and dynamic stability analysis

• Harmonic and power quality assessments

By identifying potential issues early, Keentel Engineering helps projects avoid costly surprises and operational disruptions.

Utility Scale Solar Engineering Solutions

The rapid expansion of renewable energy has made Utility Scale Solar Engineering a key focus area. Large solar plants require careful interconnection planning to ensure voltage control, power quality, and system protection.

Keentel Engineering supports solar projects through.

• Interconnection applications and studies

• POI and collector system design

• Protection and inverter coordination

• Utility and ISO compliance documentation

Our experience ensures solar facilities connect smoothly and perform reliably over their entire lifespan.

Wind Power Engineering Services for Complex Projects

Wind energy presents unique grid challenges due to its variable output and remote locations. Our Wind Power Engineering Services address these complexities through detailed system modeling and interconnection expertise.

We assist wind developers with:

• Grid impact and stability studies

• Substation and POI design

• Collector system engineering

• Utility coordination and approvals

With Keentel Engineering, wind projects achieve efficient grid integration without compromising reliability.

BESS Engineering Services for Energy Storage Integration

Battery Energy Storage Systems play a vital role in grid modernization. BESS Engineering Services require precise coordination of controls, protection, and interconnection standards.

Our BESS solutions include:

• POI and substation integration

• Control system design

• Protection coordination

• Power quality and performance analysis

Keentel Engineering ensures storage systems enhance grid resilience while meeting all technical and regulatory requirements.
