Aggregated Distributed Energy Resources in 2024: The Fundamentals
This report builds upon existing literature and leading examples of ADER pricing and programs in practice to equip commissioners and staff at Public Utilities Commissions (PUCs) and State Energy Offices with the fundamentals of ADER grid services, valuation options, and approaches to compensation. Examples, active debates, and opportunities for further reading are highlighted throughout the document for readers to explore. This report does not seek to outline a specific objective for ADERs in the electricity system nor does it recommend any specific policies for ADERs—it seeks to provide helpful information to inform policymakers’ own ADER strategies and priorities.
