Furthermore, this process is not regulated fully by the state, and small utilities make their own rules outlining demands for interconnection.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, it is a necessary and mandatory aspect of a solar installation.&nbsp; However, it is not something a local solar installer can regulate or supersede. It is just a part of the solar installation process that your installer will navigate through, even if it takes some extra time.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How Does It Work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_692\" style=\"width: 341px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-692\" class=\"wp-image-692 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/net-metering-01-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"Process \" width=\"331\" height=\"259\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/net-metering-01-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/net-metering-01.jpg 481w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 331px) 100vw, 331px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-692\" class=\" wp-image-692\" src=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/net-metering-01-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"Process \" width=\"331\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/net-metering-01-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/net-metering-01.jpg 481w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 331px) 100vw, 331px\" \/><\/noscript><p id=\"caption-attachment-692\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: GoSunPro<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A standard residential solar system installation takes an average of three days.&nbsp; Even through the final days of installation, a solar array can be fully functional.&nbsp; Once the system is set up and ready, the panels can already produce electricity, and the inverter is ready to convert the electricity produced by your panels into usable energy for your home.&nbsp; However, until the utility provides a letter giving the system \u201c<strong>Permission To Operate<\/strong>\u201d or most commonly referred to as <strong>PTO<\/strong>, the system cannot be turned on.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the process for a solar installer is to work with the local utility.

Obtaining <strong>PTO<\/strong> is one of those things.<\/p>\n<p>Homeowners can see the swift installation process and how quickly and efficiently our team works together when it comes to system design, installation, permitting and financing.&nbsp; However, problems often arise when the install comes to a dead halt once the physical installation is complete.&nbsp; Applications and documentation for <strong>PTO<\/strong> have long been filed, and inspections have been scheduled.<\/p>\n<p>And then we all wait.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, at this point, we &#8211; alongside our customers &#8211; are at the mercy and scheduling of the utility.<\/p>\n<p>Often, when timing aligns, solar systems receive PTO within 48 hours of an installation being completed.&nbsp; Other times, there can be up to a 3 month wait.&nbsp; In one painfully frustrating instance, a homeowner had to wait for over 6 months due to utility process discrepancies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What Do We Do? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Unfortunately, there is no easy solution.&nbsp; What we can and will do is ensure our paperwork is filed accurately and in a timely manner.&nbsp; We also work closely with the utility to learn about any sort of process changes or updates.&nbsp; Again, this allows us to be proactive in filing applications and requesting inspections.<\/p>\n<p>We also spend a lot of time on the phone with local utilities.&nbsp; We want our customers to have great solar experiences.&nbsp; When the utility is the stop in the process, we want to make sure we are advocating for our customers and their access to clean energy production.&nbsp; This means we often spend hours on the phone attempting to determine when a home is going to get PTO.<\/p>\n<p>We attempt to work directly with our local utilities as partners in the process.&nbsp; Our customers are shared customers with the utilities.&nbsp; We want the best for the customer, just as we can assume the utility does too.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Moving Forward<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We continue to work with our utility partners to improve interconnection processes.&nbsp; Unfortunately, this is not something we can control.&nbsp; We are committed to an excellent solar experience and will be in constant communication with our customers if there are problems with the interconnection process.&nbsp; Luckily, more often than not, the process is fluid and our customers are up and running and connected to the grid, within a blink of an eye.<\/p>\n<p>Related Articles:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/what-does-solar-have-to-do-with-codes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">What does Solar have to do with Codes?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/do-not-forget-to-update-your-insurance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Do Not Forget to Update Your Insurance<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/an-update-on-the-solar-tax-credit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">An Update on the Solar Tax Credit<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have said it before and will probably say it again: we work hard to make solar interconnection installation look simple.
