Through DR solutions, DERs can augment traditional supply-driven grids powered by utilities and grid operators. For years, however, state commissions across the Midwest have been uncertain about their ability to regulate Aggregators of Retail Customers (ARCs), organizations that aggregate customer DERs and manage their participation in grid services programs, along with the necessary parameters for ARCs to operate in tandem with utility resource planning activities, all while ensuring that costs are not unfairly shifted to ratepayers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the current economic cycle, there has never been a better time for Midwestern states to seize on opportunities to leverage innovative technologies that can create new revenue streams for customers and enable grid flexibility and reliability. Millions of people stand to benefit from the full utilization of customer load flexibility to ensure the resiliencies of our communities,\u201d said Peter Dotson-Westphalen, Senior Director \u2013 Market Development and Regulatory Affairs, CPower.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur goal is to educate key stakeholders in MISO that energy flexibility is very much a real solution that can help meet their requirements today and well into the future. It will also help diversify our energy mix by paving the way for integrating cleaner DERs into the grid,\u201d added Ken Schisler, Senior Vice President \u2013 Regulatory Affairs, CPower.<\/p>\n<p>CPower is steeped in the critical operational, financial, and sustainability challenges that commercial and industrial energy users face as they work to become more resourceful through their DER strategies. CPower has extensive experience in designing and implementing grid flexibility and reliability solutions, with 6.3 GW of DER capacity at more than 17,000 sites across the country. CPower has further expanded its footprint in MISO this year, announcing new solutions across <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/who-we-are\/newsandhappenings\/cpower-expands-demand-response-program-throughout-illinois\/\">Illinois<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/who-we-are\/newsandhappenings\/consumers-energy-taps-cpower-to-deliver-grid-services-in-michigan\/\">Michigan<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Regulators and utility stakeholders can access the new framework here:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Midwest-DR-Framework.pdf\">https:\/\/cpowerenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Midwest-DR-Framework.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>About CPower Energy <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CPower Energy is the national leader of grid balancing and reliability solutions, creating a Customer-Powered Grid\u2122\u00a0that will enable a flexible, clean and dependable energy future.
