Electric Distribution R&D Electric Distribution Transformation

 Integrating DER and load management to respond to customer needs for differentiated electric delivery services in power quality and power reliability Interconnection standards and Implementation Advanced distribution operating concepts incorporating DER

GridWise

 Modernizing the grid with sensors/communications/ IT/controls for an intelligent, secure grid

Modernize distribution grid infrastructure and operations, from distribution substations (69 kV and down) to consumers, with 2-way flow of electricity and information
