Utilities Webinar Benefits

As electrification accelerates and US policy and legislation encourage smarter grid use, distributed energy resources (DERs) are emerging as the key to unlocking a faster, more affordable, and resilient energy future.

The challenge US utilities face is how to operationalize and scale the use of DER’s – breaking down traditional utility silos and building a more integrated approach to grid planning and operations so that DERs become part of business as usual.

In the webinar, you’ll learn:

• How Electron enables network utilities to scale DER flexibility using local flexibility markets

• How ENWL, a UK DSO, 4x’d their flexibility volume with Electron and brought DER’s into the control room

• What US utilities can learn, and how to turn these insights into action through integrated planning and value of DER’s

Featured Speakers: Chris Broadhurst, Chief Commercial Officer, Electron; Paul George, DSO Commercial Lead, Electricity North West; Julieta Giraldez, Director of Integrated Planning, Electric Power Engineers; Robbie Astrop, Business Development Manager, Electric Power Engineers.
