The Grid Needs DERs and Microgrids: Here's What Can Accelerate their Deployment, says Deloitte

Deloitte Consulting has published an insightful report identifying policies and programs that could accelerate the growth of DERs and microgrids, including rate programs that allow utilities to make the most of DERs, from V2G mobile microgrids to behind-the-meter DC community microgrids. Utilities can leverage DERs for power during outages that are more frequent and more severe due to climate impact, to meet dynamic peak demands that are increasing with electrification trends. At the same time investment in DERs can reduce the capital spending needed to meet ever increasing power capacity requirements, providing utilities more flexibility and new revenue streams.  To explore how hydrogen-fueled DERs can reinforce microgrids to maximize resilience and reliability join our upcoming webinar.
