FOR INDEPENDENT ENGINEERS

Continuous Performance Verification for BESS.

SynthGrid picks up where your bankability study ends. Continuous, automated, auditable verification for the life of the debt.

Help your clients close bankable BESS projects.

Lenders ask: “Who monitors performance after commissioning?” Today the answer is “the operator self-reports.” SynthGrid gives your clients a better answer.

FINANCING OUTCOMES
Better rates, higher credit limits for your clients
Continuous verification gives lenders what they need to offer tighter spreads, higher advance rates, and fewer covenant restrictions. The IE firm that can guide a developer there is the one they call for the next project.
BANKABILITY
Close the gap lenders are already asking about
Your client's project goes to credit committee with the answer to “who watches after you leave?” already in the package.
DISPUTES
Your baseline becomes the reference standard
When a warranty dispute surfaces at Year 3, monitoring data is compared against the baseline your firm established. Your work is the reference, not the target.
YOUR SCOPE
Address the concern without expanding your engagement
We don't perform technology assessments, revenue modeling, or any element of the bankability study. We verify the asset performs as modeled after it's built. No overlap. No scope creep.
THE PREPARATION GAP
Lenders are requiring performance documentation that developers struggle to assemble.
Lenders want SoH modeling, stress-tested DSCR projections, and ongoing performance monitoring plans. Developers have no standard to cite. Projects stall.
A verification readiness assessment in the bankability study package closes that gap and reduces the risk of project deferral.

The problem after you leave.

Your work is essential to close. But it is point-in-time. After close, the lender relies on operator self-reported data, routed through the same vendor whose warranty is at stake.

7x
Degradation discrepancy between vendor-reported SoH and independent measurement
EPRI Journal
72%
Of BESS failures occur within the first two years of operation
EPRI 3002030360, 2024
89%
Of failures involve controls and BOS, not cell defects
EPRI 3002030360, 2024
8.9%
Storage unavailability vs. 3.3% for PV. Nearly 3x the downtime
CAISO data via ESIC
EPRI observed SoC values that “fluctuated faster than is physically possible.” A direct indicator of data integrity failures in operator-reported telemetry.

Grounded in ESIC. Operationalized as continuous monitoring.

Mapped to ESIC (EPRI 3002033752, 2025 edition) test procedures. ESIC defines point-in-time tests. We run them continuously.

Data Integrity
Corruption in transit, unauthorized data sources, tampered records
Timing Verification
Clock drift, GPS sync failures, relay attack indicators
Grid Event Confirmation
False frequency response claims, event magnitude vs. grid severity
Energy & Capacity
SOC/energy flow inconsistency, capacity vs. warranted curves, ramp rate violations
Data Quality
Telemetry completeness, measured vs. interpolated vs. backfilled classification
Every result is cryptographically signed, hash-chained, and anchored to an immutable record. The full methodology is documented and auditable. IE firms, lenders, and auditors can verify signatures locally without trusting SynthGrid infrastructure.

BMS data cross-referenced against sources the operator doesn't control.

Tiered independent data model. For utility-scale FTM assets, the independent source is already on-site. BTM hardware on the roadmap.

TIER 1 - AVAILABLE
FTM Relay
Protective relay at POI (SEL/Schweitzer, GPS-synced). Already on every ISO-connected asset. Two independent measurements of the same physical event.
Market Utility-scale (ISO-connected)
TIER 2 - ROADMAP
BTM Validation Probe
SynthGrid-owned metering for behind-the-meter C&I and municipal assets. Split-core CT, GPS-synced, cellular backhaul. Non-invasive installation.
Market Behind-the-meter (C&I, municipal)
TIER 3 - ROADMAP
Full Edge Module
Revenue-grade meter (ANSI C12.20) with tamper-resistant signing module. For premium deployments and warranty arbitration evidence.
Market Premium / warranty arbitration

We complement the bankability study. We don't replace any part of it.

No technology assessments, revenue modeling, or procurement review. We pick up where your engagement ends.

PRE-CONSTRUCTION
Verification Readiness Assessment
  • Review BMS specification and monitoring architecture
  • Identify telemetry gaps that will cause data quality problems post-COD
  • Assess commissioning test plan against ESIC standards
  • Produce verification-readiness report for the project finance package
Can be scoped as a subcontracted deliverable within the IE firm's engagement.
AT COD
Baseline & Handoff
You conduct acceptance testing. SynthGrid begins monitoring on Day 1 using the data architecture reviewed during pre-construction. Baseline report anchors all future degradation analysis.
POST-COD
Life-of-Debt Monitoring
You move to the next project. Monitoring continues for the life of the debt. Quarterly reports cite your baseline. Lenders get covenant compliance, degradation analysis, and early warnings.

What the lender receives. What you can reference.

EnergyPassport credit report (PDF). PDF/A-3 with embedded cryptographic proof. Credit committee ready. Dashboard and API access included.
Covenant compliance status. Green / yellow / red per asset. Configurable thresholds.
Degradation curve analysis. P50 / P90 / P10 remaining life estimates vs. warranty curves and your baseline.
Data quality provenance. Measured vs. estimated vs. backfilled classification.
Tamper-evident attestation chain. Independently verifiable without trusting SynthGrid.

Three ways to work together.

Strict data confidentiality across all options. Operator data is never shared without explicit consent.

Scope a verification readiness assessment for your next project.

20-minute call. Methodology, data architecture review, and what the deliverable looks like alongside your bankability study.
