2026 Event Schedule

As utilities transition from traditional system-wide dispatch to more targeted demand-side strategies, programs must evolve to incorporate locational intelligence and low voltage grid awareness. This session will explore how emerging AMI 2.0 capabilities, grid-edge sensing, and device-level intelligence can work together to shape load at the transformer and feeder level, manage thermal constraints, and improve hosting capacity. The panel will highlight foundational concepts such as locational valuation, feeder targeting, customer engagement, and distributed coordination models that enable utilities to deliver measurable distribution-level value while still supporting system goals.
