Managing the Interconnection Process

Interconnection is the most common schedule-killer on solar, wind, storage, and data center projects. Learn to manage the queue, the studies, and the upgrade costs as a project discipline rather than a wait. The course runs as guided self-study: narrated module videos, review questions after each module, a practitioner case study, and a final examination. 2.25 PMI PDUs (Ways of Working, Power Skills, Business Acumen), self-reported in PMI's CCRS as self-directed learning. What you will learn: • Explain the interconnection process from application through queue, studies, and grid-connection agreement. • Interpret queue position and study results for their schedule and cost implications. • Identify the points in the interconnection process where projects most often stall. • Assess grid-connection risk and build it into the project schedule and risk register. • Develop mitigation strategies for interconnection delay. • Manage utility and regulator relationships as project dependencies. Who should attend:  This self-study course is written for project managers and finance professionals, and for PMP and other PMI credential holders seeking PDUs.
