Permitting and AHJ workflows

Explore permitting and ahj workflows
Utility interconnection
Give interconnection work its own governed record and deficiency loop instead of hiding it inside a generic project status.
Inspection and PTO
Separate installation completion from inspection passage and final operating permission, with evidence for every transition.

Questions to settle
Questions teams ask about permitting and pto.
Can requirements vary by authority and utility?+
Yes. The operating model should preserve effective dates, project applicability, source evidence, and the owner responsible for maintaining each requirement set.
Does a submission mean approval?+
No. Submission, review, deficiency, resubmission, approval, inspection, and activation should remain distinct states.
Can Solar1 predict approval dates?+
The assessment can map historical and target timing context, but no approval date should be presented as guaranteed.
