Reducing Barriers to Entry and Hedging Against Obsolescence with Smart Grid Interoperability

Interoperability is the last significant barrier to the full participation of distributed energy resources in electricity markets and operations. The opportunities for diverse and unconventional system participants to create value will continue to grow as the challenges of systems and market integration are mitigated. Enhancing interoperability to ease energy systems integration opens opportunities for operational improvements and value creation that exceed the horizons of any single installatio
