Interconnection is recognized by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) as a significant barrier in developing distributed energy resources (DER) and achieving statewide energy and emission goals.

Interconnection processes serve two fundamental purposes:
Federal and state regulators are faced with the challenge of keeping interconnection procedures updated against a backdrop of evolving technology, new codes and standards, and considerably transformed market conditions.
The WDG Interconnection Pilot has the goal of facilitating interconnection for WDG/FOM projects.
Established by the Peninsula Advanced Energy Community (PAEC) Initiative
PAEC seeks to educate policymakers and stakeholders on beneficial reforms that will keep interconnection processes efficient and cost-effective while maintaining a safe and reliable electric grid.
