DNO applications are one of the biggest bottlenecks in UK solar and battery installations. Payaca integrates directly with ENA Connect so you can submit G98 and G99 applications, track their status, and generate commissioning forms without leaving the platform.

Check equipment against approved device databases before you quote, and get notified the moment an application is approved. When a DNO needs more before they'll sign off, their reasons show up on the application itself - not just a status that leaves you guessing.

What's included

Everything you need to cut grid connection time in half.

ENA Connect Integration

Submit G98 and G99 applications directly to DNOs. No separate portals, no duplicate data entry.

Application Tracking

Monitor submission status in real-time. If a DNO comes back needing more work before they'll approve a connection, Payaca shows their specific reasons right on the application - no logging into the ENA Connect portal or phoning the DNO to find out what's missing.

Commissioning Forms

Auto-generate ENA-compliant commissioning forms. All device details and test results in the right format.

Device Database

Look up approved inverters, batteries, and EV chargers. Ensure equipment is DNO-compliant before you quote.

Frequently asked questions

What is ENA Connect and how does it work with Payaca?
ENA Connect is the platform used to submit grid connection applications to UK Distribution Network Operators (DNOs). Payaca integrates directly with ENA Connect, letting you submit G98 and G99 applications without leaving the platform.
What's the difference between G98 and G99 applications?
G98 covers smaller installations (single-phase up to 16A per phase) with a simpler notification process. G99 is for larger installations requiring a formal application and approval from the DNO before connecting. Payaca handles both types.
Can I track DNO application status in Payaca?
Yes. Once submitted, Payaca monitors the application status and notifies you when applications are approved, require amendments, or need attention. No need to log into separate DNO portals.
Does Payaca generate commissioning forms?
Yes. Payaca auto-generates ENA-compliant commissioning forms with device details and test results in the correct format. Submit them directly through the platform when the installation is complete.
Can I check if equipment is DNO-approved in Payaca?
Yes. Payaca includes a device database of approved inverters, batteries, and EV chargers so you can verify equipment is DNO-compliant before including it in a quote.
What happens if my DNO comes back needing more work before they'll approve a connection?
If ENA Connect returns a 'Works Required' status, Payaca stores the DNO's reasons and displays them directly on the connection application in the project. You see exactly what the DNO needs before they'll approve - without digging through the ENA Connect portal or chasing them for an explanation.
