What you missed: New Industry Structures
The New Industry Structures session organized by Shawn Chandler was motivated by the many challenges utilities currently face as they seek to respond to societal, technological, and environmental change. New architecture demands have been added to the electric system, including new competitive structures and partners dealing with grid-edge customers, all alongside new social and regulatory pressures for rapid change. These include challenges with coordination and management of distributed energy resource (DER) operations from customers to aggregators, aggregators to utility operations, and between markets, regulators, customers, and other external system stakeholders. Regulators and operations stakeholders in the industry have emerging needs for transparency in data and processes regarding sustainability interests and/or requirements. The presenters, Arash Saidi, Matt McDonnell, Stephanie Pincetl, and Eric Fournier, and audience explored these topics and solutions in a hybrid workshop with the thought-leading panelists representing industry, academia, and government stakeholder perspectives, followed by a collaborative session where attendees contributed to the discussion to help evaluate and formulate paths forward.
Coming soon will be the recording of the session on our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@gridwiseac.
