  • Unauthorized electrical grid connection detection and characterization system and method
    Patent number: 10557720
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and method for monitoring unauthorized electrical grid access via an electrical connection to the electrical grid and/or an electrical component of the electrical grid, and retrieving customer energy data from an energy delivery server including one or more customer records of a customer's coupling to one or more energy delivery systems or networks. The system and method further includes deriving a information or rules from the customer energy data, and determining a net energy metering (NEM) status by establishing an indicator of net energy metering (NEM) access to the customer. The system and method further includes determining solar status by determining if the customer is a solar customer, analyzing and determining a system size of the customer, and determining unauthorized interconnection of the customer based on the analysis of system size, solar status, and the customer's net energy metering (NEM) status.
