A Practice Note discussing the process of connecting an energy generating or battery storage facility to the electric grid and the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the interconnection process. These resources electrically connect to the grid through an inverter— power electronic devices that convert DC energy into AC energy—and are referred to as inverter-based resources (IBRs). This article explores their applications, benefits, and real-world examples while highlighting industry trends and solutions. .
