The Art and Science of Distributed Energy Resource (DER) Forecasting

Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) represent a vital and expanding asset on the grid, but are often undervalued or disregarded in traditional Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) and Distribution System Planning (DSP) processes. This panel will highlight recent advancements in DER forecasting and showcase opportunities for companies to meet increasing demand due to electrification. Participants will delve into the essential data required by utilities, developers, and stakeholders to conduct precise DER forecasting, covering a spectrum of technologies including solar, storage, electric vehicles, and microgrids.
