The emergence of new technologies is driving significant variations in capacity requirements across the grid. Some regions are experiencing a surge in solar PV installations, electric vehicle adoption, and building electrification while others remain relatively stable. This session will delve into the integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) into the load forecasting process, bridging the gap between the distribution system and IRP forecasts.
