![]() ![]() To apply or for more information, visit #energyjobs #cleanenergy #electricity #energypolicy #NARUC Innovator Fellows will spend up to two years supporting projects that the Host Institutions identify as critical to enhancing grid resilience and/or advancing decarbonization while ensuring energy affordability and grid reliability. They receive a stipend to support their participation in the program and an allowance for education and professional development opportunities. Host Institution projects will be posted on the Clean Energy Innovator Fellowship website by May 19. At the same time, the program increases access to career opportunities in the clean energy field across the United States.Īpplications from Host Institutions - public utility commissions, grid operators, cooperative and municipal utilities, Tribal organizations, and essential energy organizations in Puerto Rico - are due April 27.Īpplications for Innovator Fellows will open on May 22 and are due on June 8. The program funds public utility commissions and other organizations to support efforts to advance clean energy solutions. The fellowship is open to recent graduates with bachelor's or advanced degrees, as well as mid-career professionals in fields relevant to electricity. #energytransition #distributedenergyresources #retailrates #sustainability Į3 Publishes “Rate Design for the Energy Transition,” a New White Paper for the Energy Systems Integration Group - E3īe a Clean Energy Innovator Fellow - or host one at your organization. Read the full paper for more insights on how rate design complexity can be a barrier to beneficial customer response, and how retail rates can be a primary mechanism for compensating flexible, behind-the-meter DERs. Technological advances are increasingly placing responsive devices in the hands of consumers, and multi-part rates that reflect the utility’s long-run marginal cost can provide incentives for customers to shift or lower load while encouraging economically efficient grid investments and enabling equitable adoption of DERs. The new paper proposes a dynamic hourly energy rate, a size-based grid access charge, and non-bypassable customer charges designed for equity that recover utility embedded and unavoidable fixed costs.Īs the industry stands on the precipice of dramatic change, aligning customer responses to retail rates with grid needs now requires more complex multi-part dynamic rates. With decarbonization and clean energy policy goals driving fundamental changes to grid planning and operational challenges, rate designs established under the old paradigm are no longer aligned with marginal grid costs and are an impediment to realizing environmental goals. Authored by E3's Arne Olson, Eric Cutter, Lindsay Bertrand, Vignesh Venugopal, Sierra Spencer, Karl Walter, and Aryeh Gold-Parker, this paper outlines a feasible multi-part rate design that aligns with grid needs and environmental goals. Max圎3 has published a new white paper with the Energy Systems Integration Group’s Retail Pricing Task Force on maximizing the grid value of distributed energy resources with dynamic retail rate design. ![]() Resilience Training for the Southeast: NARUC If you need assistance with registration, contact Will McCurry at #NASEO #NARUC #DOE #energy #electricity Using smart meters and energy data to improve resilience Best practices for resilient distribution systems Causes of grid outages, metrics for measuring resilience, and valuing and prioritizing investment strategies A distribution planning framework for resilience Īttendees will include utility regulators, state energy offices, energy advisors, utility consumer advocates, and other state and local decision-makers.Ī detailed agenda are available online for the following topics: #BerkeleyLab is leading the training in partnership with #NARUC, #LLNL, #oakridge, #EPRI and the #departmentofenergy Grid Deployment Office.
