A Tale of Two DER Scenarios: Issues on Feeders Highly Saturated with DER; Risks and Regulations Impacting DERs, VPPs, and other Behind-the-Meter Solutions

The first part addresses issues on feeders that are highly DER saturated, based on experience in Minnesota that has over 860 MW of Community Solar Gardens (in front of the meter generation, with no load) that are concentrated on about 160 feeders. The second part recognizes that DERs, like virtual power plants, aggregators, microgrids, and other inverter-based resources are increasingly popular and that FERC Order 2222 helped DERs penetrate the Bulk Energy System energy market. The second part discusses national DER trends and reviews current and pending state and federal regulations that will impact market entry and DERs’ bottom line.
