As behind-the-meter distributed energy resources (DERs) such as solar PV and electric vehicles grow, utilities face blind spots in grid operations and uncertainties in distribution planning. Without clear visibility, misjudged capacity needs and operational inefficiencies become costly risks. 

This session will share how utilities can leverage scalable DER data insights to reconstruct gross load, optimize infrastructure investments and improve grid reliability. See a live demonstration of solutions that help planners and operators make faster, more informed decisions in an increasingly complex grid environment.

Key takeaways:

• Learn how DER gross load can be reconstructed for power flow simulations and grid planning without costly sub-metering infrastructure
• Understand how you can scale simulations from the meter to any grid level, factor in extreme weather and configure simulation frequency to meet your needs
• Through a live demonstration, see how FleetView creates DER performance forecasts using dependable data sources and bottom-up modeling

PowerClerk program designers interested in learning how PowerClerk DER data can support distribution planning will find this session beneficial. We encourage inviting resource planners, planning engineers and distribution operations engineers that would benefit from deeper DER insights to inform distribution planning and grid operations.
