Correct tariff identification
The applicable tariff is identified based on project location, size, and interconnection point — verified against the utility's published service territory and rate schedules.
The most rigorous interconnection application pack a C&I solar or storage developer can submit.
QueueClear assembles a utility-specific, completeness-verified interconnection application package — every required form, technical drawing, fee schedule, and queue-tracking update — checked against that utility's own published rules before a licensed Professional Engineer stamps the drawings and a specialist releases the pack.

Why applications fail
A single missing form or incorrect threshold can restart your queue position.
More than 90% of interconnection applications as submitted contain errors that trigger a revision cycle, and a single resubmission can cost 6-8 weeks and restart a project's place in the queue. With 1,312 GW of generation and 749 GW of storage sitting in active U.S. interconnection queues as of end of 2025, and median time from request to commercial operation exceeding five years, the cost of a restudy is measured in months and millions.
Most developers run this by hand, relying on in-house specialists or outside consultants who must re-learn each utility's rules every time. The patchwork of 1,600+ distinct U.S. utilities, each with its own forms, thresholds, and timelines, guarantees that completeness gaps hide until the utility rejects the application.
QueueClear exists to close that gap with a single, exhaustive standard applied identically to every file — before the utility ever sees it.

The benchmark
Measured against the utility's own published rules — form by form, threshold by threshold.
We do not summarize the requirements and hope. Every pack is scored against a versioned rule pack tied to the exact tariff, interconnection manual, and fee schedule of the specific utility. These are the provisions each pack is held to.
Complete and accurate form
Every field on the utility's exact application form is pre-filled from validated project data; no placeholder or guesswork is permitted.
Correct fee calculation
Application, study, and interconnection fees are calculated per the utility's published fee schedule and included in the pack.
Threshold compliance check
Project size, voltage, and equipment specs are checked against the utility's published thresholds for supplemental review, system impact study, or facility study — ensuring the correct study path is selected.
PE-stamped drawings
A licensed Professional Engineer stamps the single-line diagram and equipment schedule, meeting the utility's signature and seal requirements.
RFI response drafting
When a utility issues a Request for Information or restudy notice, a response is drafted citing the utility's own language and submitted within the same week.
How a pack is built
Intake to PE-stamped release, with deterministic gates the AI cannot overrule.
AI extracts and drafts. Deterministic rules — running as code, outside the model — decide what is complete. A licensed Professional Engineer stamps technical drawings. A specialist signs every release. That order is never reversed.
01
Delinquency Gap Scan
Upload the project site data, equipment cut sheets, and utility information. We return a free completeness read: which forms, thresholds, and drawings you already have, and which are missing.
02
Utility rule identification
We identify the correct utility, tariff, and application requirements based on the project's location, size, and interconnection point — corroborated against our maintained rule library.
03
Grounded drafting
The application form, fee calculation, and technical summary are drafted from your validated data and the utility-specific rule pack into field-locked templates — no legal opinions, no invented facts.
04
Deterministic completeness gates
Every required form is present; every fee is calculated correctly; technical thresholds are matched; the single-line diagram is PE-ready. Any failure blocks release.
05
PE stamp & specialist release
A licensed Professional Engineer reviews and stamps the technical drawings. A compliance specialist reviews the exception queue and signs the release.
06
Delivery & queue tracking
You receive the pack: completed application, fee payment instructions, stamped drawings, evidence log, and queue-tracking dashboard — ready for the developer to submit to the utility.

Why QueueClear
Built to be the most thorough option a developer has.
Documentation-complete, by design
The deliverable is completeness itself — every required form, fee, and drawing accounted for or explicitly exception-coded. Nothing is left implicit.
Deterministic, not vibes
The gates that decide completeness are code, not a model's opinion. A drafting error cannot slip past a utility-specific requirement.
In its lane, on purpose
We prepare documentation and run searches as your clerical agent. We never contact the utility on your behalf, give engineering advice beyond the stamped drawings, or conduct the interconnection process.
Engagement
Flat fee per accepted application, plus per-project queue tracking. No hourly billing, ever.
Simple, predictable, and aligned with the outcome that matters — an application accepted without a completeness rejection.
- A free Delinquency Gap Scan before you commit — see exactly what is missing.
- One flat fee per released Interconnection Application Completeness Pack; disclosed pass-through PE stamp fees.
- Optional per-active-project monthly queue-tracking fee for multi-utility portfolio visibility.
- No contingency and no percentage of any project value or PPA.
FAQ
Questions, answered precisely.
Is QueueClear a law firm?
No. QueueClear, a service of Your Deputy, Obuke LLC, provides documentation-completeness services. It is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not represent you in any legal matter. Licensed Professional Engineer review is available and required for stamped drawings.
Do you contact the utility or submit the application?
Never. QueueClear is not a utility liaison and does not submit applications or communicate with utilities on your behalf. The developer remains the applicant and the party responsible for all submissions and correspondence.
What makes a pack 'complete'?
Completeness is defined by the specific utility's published requirements: the correct tariff identified, every required form pre-filled, fees calculated correctly, technical thresholds matched, and PE-stamped drawings included. Deterministic gates enforce each one before release.
How fast is it?
The standard SLA is five business days from complete intake to a released pack. The free Gap Scan is returned much sooner and tells you exactly what is still needed.
How are you priced?
A flat fee per released pack, plus disclosed pass-through PE stamp costs. No hourly billing and no percentage of any project value or PPA.
