  Kevala Inc. is a San Francisco based grid intelligence company, founded in 2014, that builds a
  cloud-based electric-grid data and analytics platform for utilities, regulators and government
  agencies, renewable energy developers, and transportation electrification planners. The platform
  merges address-specific geospatial data, utility network models and hyper-granular time-series
  data into map-based analytics for integrated grid planning, distributed energy resource (DER)
  adoption forecasting, project siting, power flow analysis, locational carbon accounting,
  production cost modeling, and predictive interconnection siting metrics, with exports compatible
  with CYME, Synergi, PSS/E and OpenDSS. Kevala licenses its data and analysis by subscription and
  operates an authenticated platform API at api.kevala.com; the DER metering surface publishes an
  OpenAPI document and a ReDoc reference, but both require platform credentials and no public
  developer portal, API reference or machine-readable specification is served anonymously.

apis:
- name: Kevala Platform API — DER Metering
  description: >-
    Authenticated REST surface of the Kevala platform, mounted at https://api.kevala.com/der/ and
    implemented with Django REST Framework. Kevala's September 2024 platform release notes describe
    a "DER Metering — New portal for accessing meter status and PV generation data". The service
    publishes its own OpenAPI document at /der/openapi/ (Content-Type application/vnd.oai.openapi)
    and a ReDoc reference at /der/redoc/, but both return HTTP 403
    {"detail":"Authentication credentials were not provided."} to anonymous callers, so the
    contract could not be captured. Access tokens are issued by Kevala's Auth0 tenant for the
    audience https://api.kevala.com.

  detail: >-
    Kevala's DER service does publish an OpenAPI document and a ReDoc reference at
    https://api.kevala.com/der/openapi/ and /der/redoc/, but both return HTTP 403
    "Authentication credentials were not provided." to anonymous callers, and the platform behind
    them is reachable only with an Auth0 token issued to an active subscription.
