About the Organization

This renewable energy developer is one of the largest in the U.S., operating solar farms, battery storage sites, and hybrid energy assets across more than 20 states. With a mission to deliver clean, reliable energy at scale, the company must navigate an increasingly complex regulatory landscape—including ERCOT, FERC, EIA 923, ISO standards, environmental permits, and state-level compliance obligations.

The Challenge

Before adopting VComply, the company faced rising compliance complexity across its expanding portfolio. Permit renewals, contract milestones, environmental filings, and regulatory reports were tracked in scattered spreadsheets, emails, and local folders.

 

Without a unified system, the team struggled with:

 

  • Disjointed permit, contract, and program tracking
  • No automated reminders or escalations for upcoming deadlines
  • Siloed reporting workflows for ERCOT, EIA 923, FERC, and state agencies
  • Inconsistent ownership of policy updates and acknowledgments
  • Limited visibility across geographically dispersed project teams

 

The compliance function was reactive and manual, with an increasing risk of missed filings, renewal delays, and audit exposure.

The Outcome

VComply provided a centralized, scalable platform to manage compliance across projects and programs. Regulatory obligations were mapped to actionable controls, with assigned owners, deadlines, and automated alerts.

 

Project-level dashboards now provide unified tracking for tasks, issues, and risks across multiple states. Automated workflows cover contract renewals, permit submissions, and recurring inspections.

 

With centralized document management, the team streamlined compliance reporting for FERC, ERCOT, and EIA 923, while ensuring every policy update is version-controlled and acknowledged. Incident tracking, risk monitoring, and escalation workflows have improved accountability and audit readiness.

Before VComply

Scattered, Manual, and Siloed

Compliance was tracked manually in spreadsheets and local systems, increasing the risk of missed deadlines, incomplete documentation, and inconsistent reporting. 

Missed Deadlines, Manual Tracking, Last-Minute Rush

Contract milestones and permit expirations were often tracked manually, leading to renewal delays and last-minute scrambles. 

Reactive Incident and Risk Management Process

Operational and environmental incidents were logged inconsistently, with no standardized resolution or escalation process.
