# New Project Guide

![](/files/yhJXVnpXnR8vI3kyTStf)

If you are adding a new project to Ecosuite, below is some useful guidance:

**What is the difference between a Project, Site and System?**

* A Project is defined by its company or LLC. If you are using two LLCs for two systems - they are two separate projects.
* A Site is defined by Physical Point of Interconnection (POI) or Point of Common Coupling (PCC). If you have two separate Interconnections. You have two separate Sites.
* A System represents a contiguous solar array or other such DER within the same Site. You may have multiple Systems on a Site.

***

**New Project Naming Convention**

* Project Code
  * Project Codes are generally derived from the name of the Project's company or LLC
    * eg. ACME MA III LLC = MA3
  * Codes should **NOT** use roman numerals, use decimal numbers instead (aids in readability), also note that Project Codes cannot change once set.
  * New Projects that are replacing previously canceled projects and using the same LLC should be tagged with a letter to distinguish them - the first replacement being tagged with "b", second with "c" and so on.
* Site Code
  * Can be an abbreviated version of the Project name or if preferred just use  "S1", "S2" etc.
* System Code
  * Identifies the type and Number of Systems
    * Example (Ground Mount = G1; Rooftop = R1; Canopy = C1 etc.)
