The need for deeper integration of analytical models and physical power plant control has never been greater. The rapid growth of AI is driving unprecedented demand for new power infrastructure. At the same time, evolving NERC and utility grid requirements are making inverter-based resource projects significantly more complex to design, validate, and commission. These challenges require advanced modeling, Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) validation, and proven control strategies long before a project reaches commissioning.

Through this strategic partnership, Merit and ETP are giving customers an end-to-end solution spanning engineering studies, digital modeling, control systems, Hardware-in-the-Loop testing, commissioning, and long-term operational support.
