UU208: DERMS deep dive into deployment, trends, and regulations
March 24 | 8:00 AM-12:00 PM | C156
This course presents an introduction to DERMS, deployment tactics, industry trends, utility experiences, regulatory implications. Several topics will be covered in the course along with real-world case studies from various projects in the industry.
Making the case: Economic and societal values of DERMS with PG&E, HECO, and National Grid
March 26 | 9:00-9:50 AM | C142
This session presents methodologies for assessing the value streams enabled by DERMS to support utility investment decisions and cost-recovery filings. DERMS applications considered include supporting flexible interconnection agreements, non-wires alternatives, and DER grid services.
DERMS lessons learned by G&T cooperatives
March 27 | 10:00-10:50 AM | C140
Three leading G&T companies — Great River Energy, Dairyland Power, and North Carolina’s Electric Cooperatives — will present their experience with DERMS deployments specific to a G&T with cooperative utility members.
