As electricity demand increases and interconnection timelines tighten, project developers need ways to move faster- without sacrificing precision or confidence. Invenergy, America’s largest privately held independent power producer, leverages Nira to support strategic interconnection decisions that enable the delivery of reliable, affordable energy.

Over the past year, Invenergy has used Nira’s In-Queue tool to:

• Support decision points across MISO and PJM

• Analyze queue positions across a diverse project portfolio

• Run hundreds of project scenario combinations to evaluate risk

• Integrate Nira into the interconnection decision points across the company’s 36+ gigawatt portfolio

Managing interconnection decisions for even ten projects is time-intensive and complex to scale with hundreds of active queue positions. Running studies manually takes time and resources that can be optimized elsewhere.

That’s where Nira comes in. The company’s In-Queue tool enables developers like Invenergy to run scenario analyses, track upgrade impacts, and simulate queue attrition across their entire portfolio in hours, leveraging the latest ISO models already integrated within the platform.

“I spent a lot of time digging into Nira’s assumptions when I first started using their product and was impressed by their tool’s ability to closely mirror MISO system impact study outcomes. The level of detail provided in Nira’s results reduces my processing time while still maintaining consistent accuracy” said Max Blackburn, Manager of Interconnections & Grid Analysis at Invenergy. “My experience with the platform is positive - it has helped me run multiple complex analyses on a large portfolio and quickly generate actionable insights for my team.”

“With energy demand growing, companies must optimize the development process to keep pace,” said Carlos Rodriguez, SVP Interconnection and Grid Analysis at Invenergy. “Nira’s grid intelligence tools give the clarity and speed needed to evaluate interconnection opportunities efficiently, helping us deliver the reliable, affordable energy our customers count on and enabling us to meet our customer’s growing energy needs.”

Nira helps Invenergy move faster as it builds the clean energy future.
