Foundational Report Series: Advanced Distribution Management Systems for Grid Modernization, DMS Industry Survey

The objective of this survey is to benchmark current practices for DMS implementation to serve as a guide for future system implementations. The survey sought information on current plans to implement DMS, DMS functions of interest, implementation challenges, functional benefits achieved, and other relevant information. These survey results were combined (where possible) with results of similar surveys conducted in the previous four years to observe trends over time.

Advanced Cloud Forecasting for Solar Energy’s Impact on Grid Modernization

Solar energy production is subject to variability in the solar resource – clouds and aerosols will reduce the available solar irradiance and inhibit power production. The fact that solar irradiance can vary by large amounts at small timescales and in an unpredictable way means that power utilities are reluctant to assign to their solar plants a large portion of future energy demand – the needed power might be unavailable, forcing the utility to make costly adjustments to its daily portfolio. The availability and predictability of solar radiation therefore represent important research topics for increasing the power produced by renewable sources.

Washington Clean Energy Fund Grid Modernization Projects: Economic Analysis (Final Report)

As part of CEF Round 1 funding, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) was engaged by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Washington Department of Commerce to work with Puget Sound Energy (PSE), Avista, and Snohomish Public Utility District (SnoPUD) in evaluating the economic and technical performance of each of their battery energy storage systems (BESSs). This report presents the final results of the economic assessment.

Grid Modernization: Metrics Analysis (GMLC1.1) - Affordability (Reference Document, Volume 6)

The GMLC Metric Team: 1) Identified important, but often overlooked, affordability metrics that measure the impacts of electricity costs on residential customers (customer cost burden, affordability gap, and affordability headcount gap); 2) Created a public-facing website for the residential sector that compiles publicly available data and displays affordability metrics at both the state and county level; and 3) demonstrated the use of the metrics and website for three remote village utilities in Alaska and a major electricity utility in California, Southern California Edison (SCE).

Supercapacitor-Based Power Resilience Solutions for Modern Grids, Microgrids, and Facilities

This report summarizes the tests and results of a supercapacitor based energy storage system demonstration project performed in collaboration with Capacitech Energy, Orlando Utilities Commission and Sandia National Labs. This project evaluated a 3.6 farad (F), 720 V rated supercapacitor system in a microgrid environment to study three primary use cases: black start, voltage regulation, and load leveling, and successfully demonstrated the performance for the use cases.
