Distribution Grid Locational Performance Modeling: Developing a Foundational Integrated Modeling Tool For Regulators - Proof of concept and prototype

Summary

This report presents the results of the first phase of a multi-phased project to develop an Integrated Modeling Tool for Regulators (IMT) that supports decision-making for regulatory proceedings on integrated resource planning, grid modernization proceedings, rate cases and other state and federal dockets involving the integration of distributed energy resources (DER) into the power delivery system. This first phase of the project focused on defining the scope, performance goals, and technical requirements, and conducting a proof of concept by creating a demonstrative software prototype – the first technical component of the IMT.
