Advanced Energy United Webinars

Understanding the dozens and dozens of variables that contribute to a bill being enacted is a large undertaking. Bill outcome forecasting has only been considered possible by a small group of experts that have decades of experience with the political process. While human insight is still a crucial component, it is impossible for one person or even an entire organization to keep track of and understand the rapid changes that occur throughout the legislative process.

In 2015, the U.S. advanced energy industry grew to $200 billion, up 29% since 2011. This is a result of ever-improving economics and performance. As we define it, advanced energy includes renewables, demand response, energy storage, building efficiency, advanced controls and metering, and a variety of grid technologies.

PowerSuite is the only tool you’ll need for complete coverage of energy regulatory and legislative information.

There have been a lot of discussions around the country of late about the regulatory changes needed to create a 21st century electricity system. New regulatory approaches and utility business models are needed to integrate higher levels of distributed energy resources, take advantage of new technologies, meet environmental goals, and address changing customer needs and expectations. In an industry that has been slow to change historically, there is a lot at stake for utilities, advanced energy companies, and consumers.  In order to understand what transformations are needed, it’s first necessary to understand how electric utilities make money today.

This webinar discusses two recent New York Reforming the Energy Vision (REV) filings on the value of Distributed Energy Resources (DER).  One focuses on the alignment achieved between several solar companies and New York utilities (the Solar Progress Partnership) on the Successor to Net Energy Metering, and the other provides an overview of AEE Institutes’ value of DER filing. We will also provide highlights about AEE Institute’s recent filing on DER in California.
