Behind-The-Meter Distributed Energy Resources Visibility and Control

The distribution systems have been witnessing increased penetration of behind the meter distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar PV, battery energy storage, EV, etc. Due to the lack of visibility of these DERs, it is becoming challenging to fully harness their flexibilities and potentials for grid benefits. This panel will discuss the most recent progress on behind the meter DERs visibility and developments of techniques for controlling these for grid services, such as voltage and frequency regulation, resiliency.
