GAT and device validation
We ensure that your generation unit meets all grid operator requirements.
Our specialists perform grid tests in accordance with the requirements of grid operators. Proper testing is a crucial step for connecting a power plant to the grid and starting production.
Our work stages:
- Preparation of test protocols and test plans
- Execution of grid tests
- Analysis of results and submission of reports
- Cooperation with the grid operator
Proper testing = compliant grid connection.
Grid tests
01. What is a Grid Acceptance Test (GAT) and why is it necessary?
A GAT, or Grid Acceptance Test, is a process used to verify whether a generation unit meets the technical and safety requirements of the grid operator. The test confirms that the system operates stably and safely in relation to other equipment in the grid.

02. Who performs grid tests and how is measurement accuracy ensured?
The tests are carried out in cooperation with certified measurement laboratories that have the necessary competence and calibrated instruments. This ensures that the measurement results are accurate and officially accepted by the grid operator.

03. How long does the GAT process take, and when is it carried out?
The tests typically take place within 1–2 weeks after system installation and configuration. The exact schedule is coordinated with the grid operator to ensure a smooth and efficient process.
