Demand, Load Modeling, and DER Integration
The grid is moving towards a decentralized framework, with increasing levels of distributed energy resources (DERs) in addition to large loads and rapid electrification across multiple sectors. Our team can help distribution providers, state regulatory officials, and others assess the impacts and develop strategies as the grid continues to evolve.
-
Develop aggregate DER dynamic load models for bulk power system studies
-
Develop DER integration strategies and conduct DER integration studies
-
Analyze reliability and stability issues (e.g., stability) for islanded and other resilience-focused networks
-
Enhance demand forecasting by incorporating innovative strategies; conduct sensitivity analyses to develop a least-regrets forecast
-
Support DER and load hosting capacity studies under a wide array of assumptions and conditions
-
Support education, collaboration, and education of state energy officials and regulatory offices
-
Develop and implement transportation electrification strategies (i.e., electric vehicle integration)
-
Study bulk power system impacts of increasing levels of aggregate DERs either locally or across a larger system
