PCI platform equips SunZia with forecasting and outage management tools to support the commercial operations
PCI Energy Solutions, a provider of AI-ready enterprise software for the energy industry, today announced that Pattern Energy has gone live with its platform to support the historic SunZia project. Pattern Energy is using PCI’s integrated forecasting and outage management tools to navigate the complex go-live of North America’s largest renewable energy facility.
The PCI platform enables Pattern Energy’s scheduling desk to generate precise forecasts and streamlines the scheduling of outages. This integration ensured operational readiness and a seamless transition into full commercial operations.
“Generating a bespoke energy forecast, coupled with outage cards, is what we need for SunZia,” said Matt Veghte, Sr. Director of Real-Time Operations at Pattern Energy. “PCI’s solution made it possible for us to manage test energy and prepare for energization with confidence.”
Large-scale infrastructure projects often face fluid timelines during critical pre-COD phases. The PCI platform helps renewable operators and transmission providers maintain strict reliability, coordinate complex outages, and secure operational integrity during these construction windows.
“Partnering with Pattern Energy on SunZia underscores our commitment to enabling renewable projects on an unprecedented scale,” said Shailesh Mishra, Chief Commercial Officer at PCI Energy Solutions. “Our platform helps clients navigate energy scheduling challenges and maintain operational integrity during critical pre-COD phases for a seamless go-live.”
