Interconnection netmeter: Automating Net Metering Applications for State DISCOMs

Eliminate Bureaucratic Delays: Automating State DISCOM Net Metering Feasibility Requests

Under the **PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojna**, every grid-tied solar project must be officially registered with the local electricity distribution board (DISCOM). This requires submitting technical feasibility requests and signing official Interconnection Agreements. Doing this manually for every client leads to substantial errors, spelling mistakes, and immediate portal rejections.

What is Solar Interconnection Net Metering?

Solar Net Metering is a mechanism where solar power generated is fed back into the electricity grid. The consumer receives credits on their utility bill for the exported energy. The feasibility request checks if the local distribution transformer (DT) has enough margin capacity to support the new solar connection.

How to Automate the Feasibility Request on Vendor NetFlow:

1. Go to Net Metering ? Interconnection.
2. Select your client. The system pulls saved connection numbers and customer loads.
3. Select the target State Electricity Board (e.g., MSEDCL, BESCOM, UPPCL, TNEB, DGVCL). The platform has pre-mapped templates matching 50+ DISCOM specifications.
4. Save the details. The platform's backend automatically pre-fills every parameter in the precise technical format required by the utility portal.
5. Click Download Interconnection PDF. The downloaded document is officially branded with your company signature and is 100% portal-ready.

By automating this workflow, solar installers save over 3 hours of manual drafting per project and maintain a 0% rejection rate from electricity boards.
