New report details utility policy solutions for designing flexible interconnection programs
By Casey Horan
Projected electric load demand is increasing at a rate not seen for decades, creating new and unique challenges for utilities. While most headlines focus on the demand from data centers, electric vehicles and electrified buildings are also driving grid upgrade needs — especially at the distribution level. To accommodate load growth quickly and cost-effectively, some utilities are beginning to design and implement flexible interconnection programs. These programs allow customers to connect to the grid in a manner that balances existing infrastructure capacity with new energy demands. Flexible interconnections help utilities manage grid stress by limiting customers’ peak load, offering partial service temporarily or long-term when full interconnection is not yet feasible.
