The Energy Systems Integration Group (ESIG), a non-profit that leverages the expertise of the technical community to support grid transformation and energy systems integration, has released a new report on Long-Term Load and DER Forecasting. The report addresses key challenges in long-term load and distributed energy resource (DER) forecasting in today’s transforming grid.
EPE’s Julieta Giraldez, Director of Integrated Grid Planning and chair of the Long-Term Load and DER Forecasting Task Force, led the report, which examines how variable renewable generation, electrification, and rising adoption of customer-sited technologies such as solar, battery storage, and electric vehicles are reshaping forecasting and grid planning.
