With their deep understanding of the grid, utilities are uniquely positioned to lead the charge on planning, siting, deploying, and dispatching distributed capacity resources (DERs) to create a more resilient, sustainable, and cost-effective grid. The DCP model is a new tool utilities can pick up that allows them to deploy DERs at the scale and pace necessary to support economic growth and transform the built environment for the benefit of our society. Following the discussion, a brief Q/A session will be held.
