One of the least visible datasets in the power grid is also one of the most important: facility ratings. The challenge is keeping them accurate as equipment changes, methodologies evolve, and regulations like #FERC881 introduce new requirements. buff.ly/IqETPEO

With FERC Order 2023, projects are studied together, constraints are shared, and upgrade costs need to be allocated across multiple requests. That creates complexity that spreadsheets were never designed to handle. buff.ly/1YxhwlO

Good software does not replace engineering judgment. It protects it. It reduces friction, makes important context easier to see, and helps teams move through decisions with more confidence. In power systems work, clarity is part of the reliability equation.

Cluster studies changed the way interconnection risk is evaluated. A project’s cost exposure no longer depends only on its own impact. It depends on the cohort around it, the constraints they create, and what happens if other projects drop out. Minerva is built for that.

Did you know most large power plants still rely on the same basic idea? Something spins a generator. The turbine spins a rotor. A changing magnetic field induces electric current. That current becomes the electricity we depend on. buff.ly/pAQ2k9W
