NERC Compliance Studies

Welcome to GridTech Solutions - Your Trusted Engineering Consultant

NERC Compliance Studies are a set of comprehensive assessments and analyses conducted to ensure that electric utilities and power system operators adhere to the stringent reliability and security standards established by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC).


What Are NERC Compliance Studies?

NERC is responsible for overseeing the reliability and security of the North American bulk power system. To uphold these standards, NERC requires utilities and operators to undergo periodic compliance studies. These studies evaluate a wide range of factors, from operational practices to equipment maintenance, to verify that they meet NERC's reliability requirements.


Our Approach

GridTech Solutions provides a specialized team of experts in NERC compliance to assist utilities and operators in meeting NERC standards. Our approach includes in-depth assessments, audits, and studies to ensure compliance with NERC's operational standards, and more.


Why Choose GridTech Solutions?

  • Expertise: Our team possesses a deep understanding of NERC standards and requirements.
  • Comprehensive Assessments: We offer a thorough evaluation of your operations to pinpoint areas that require improvement.
  • Compliance Assurance: Our services aim to safeguard your power systems, ensure grid reliability, and prevent vulnerabilities.


GridTech Solutions simplifies the complex process of NERC Compliance Studies, helping utilities and operators meet NERC standards and maintain the integrity and security of the North American power grid.

NERC Compliance Studies

NERC Standards Expertise and Technical Services

GridTech Solutions supports utilities, transmission providers (TP/PC), and generation owners (GO) in meeting the technical and regulatory requirements outlined in the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) standards. Our services align with key NERC categories, including:

Transmission Planning (TPL)

We conduct comprehensive system planning and performance studies to ensure grid reliability under normal and contingency conditions. This includes:

  • TPL-001 compliance studies (steady-state, dynamic, and short-circuit analysis)
  • Assessment of system performance for N-1, N-1-1, and extreme events
  • Corrective action plan (CAP) development and support
  • Dynamic stability studies, voltage performance, and load-serving capability

Protection and Control (PRC)

GridTech supports the design, testing, and validation of protection systems to ensure correct fault detection, isolation, and equipment protection:

  • Protection system coordination and fault analysis
  • PRC-019/PRC-024 and PRC-029 studies (voltage & frequency ride-through validation)
  • Protection system misoperation analysis
  • Relay settings review and event investigation

Modeling, Data, and Analysis (MOD)

We help facilities maintain accurate and complete models for use in planning and operational studies:

  • MOD-032: Data submission, model validation (PSS®E, PSLF, PSCAD)
  • MOD-025-026-027: Generator model verification (AVR, PSS, governor, wind, solar and BESS)
  • Development of power flow, short-circuit, and dynamic models
  • Coordination with ISOs/RTOs for model acceptance and submission

Resource and Demand Balancing (BAL)

We support operational readiness and compliance with standards that ensure sufficient balancing resources:

  • Frequency response analysis and tuning (BAL-003)
  • Governor performance testing and reporting
  • Real-time monitoring of ACE (Area Control Error)
  • Support for primary and secondary frequency control programs

Facilities Design, Connections, and Maintenance (FAC)

We assist in ensuring facility interconnections, upgrades, and maintenance practices meet performance and reliability requirements:

  • FAC-001/002 interconnection requirements and compliance
  • Transmission facility ratings, thermal analysis, and clearance evaluation
  • Support for connection requests and transmission design criteria
  • Inspection and audit support for maintenance records

Voltage and Reactive Power (VAR)

Our experts perform studies and compliance analysis to ensure stable voltage and reactive power support across the grid:

  • VAR-001/002 reactive power control and capability curve analysis
  • Evaluation of power factor performance and reactive margin
  • Capacitor/reactor siting and tuning
  • Compliance support for reactive reserve requirements

IEEE 2800 Compliance Services

Supporting Reliable Interconnection of Inverter-Based Resources (IBRs)

At GridTech Solutions, we provide specialized engineering services aligned with the IEEE 2800 standard, the industry benchmark for interconnection and interoperability of inverter-based resources (IBRs) — including solar, wind, and battery energy storage systems — to the bulk power system. 

What Is IEEE 2800?

 IEEE 2800, developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), defines technical requirements for the performance, control, and behavior of IBRs when connected to transmission systems. It addresses key aspects such as:

  • Voltage and frequency ride-through  
  • Reactive power and voltage control  
  • Active power control and frequency response  
  • Fault current contribution and recovery  
  • Coordination with protection systems  

This standard ensures renewable resources integrate reliably and predictably, enhancing grid stability and resilience as the energy mix evolves. 

How GridTech Solutions Can Help?

Our IEEE 2800 compliance services support developers, utilities, and OEMs with:

  • Technical Gap Assessments – Evaluate current plant capabilities against IEEE 2800 requirements
  • Control System Tuning – Configure plant-level controls to meet voltage, frequency, and ride-through specs
  • Dynamic Model Validation – Ensure accurate PSS®E and PSCAD models reflect IEEE 2800-compliant behavior
  • Test Plan Development & Execution – Design and implement tests for compliance verification
  • Regulatory Coordination – Facilitate communication with ISOs/RTOs for interconnection approval
  • Training & Advisory – Educate teams on implementation best practices and evolving standards

Why Choose GridTech?

At GridTech Solutions, we offer specialized services aligned with the IEEE 2800 standard. This industry-specific standard, developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), sets the benchmark for interconnection and interoperability requirements in the renewable energy sector.


Our IEEE 2800 Standard Services include expert guidance and support for clients looking to navigate and comply with these rigorous standards. We ensure that your renewable energy systems meet the IEEE 2800 requirements, promoting seamless integration with the grid and reliable operation.


With GridTech Solutions, you can trust in our in-depth knowledge of IEEE 2800 and our commitment to ensuring your renewable energy projects meet industry standards and regulatory requirements.
