Wholesale electricity markets should be technology-neutral, allowing all resources to compete on price and performance.

Many market rules, however, are outdated, having been designed with older technologies in mind. Such rules can prevent new technologies from selling their services on the open market, which stifles innovation and keeps our electricity system from being modernized for higher performance. 

In this paper, AEE has developed 21 case studies of barriers to advanced energy in these markets.

The first set of case studies showcases successes in removing or preventing barriers to market entry and participation by advanced energy technologies. The second set of case studies draws attention to some of the barriers for advanced energy technologies and services that remain.
