Solar and Storage as Transmission Assets

Tuesday, October 13, 2020

3:05 PM – 3:50 PM EDT

Jinko Solar Co., Ltd.

Solar and storage can act as, and be compensated as, transmission assets by reducing load locally that would otherwise require new transmission lines, as long as assets are sited in a manner to fulfill a transmission need and ISO/RTO performance requirements are met. This panel assembles leading national experts to explain current and emerging FERC regulations on this issue, ISO/RTO transmission planning processes and performance requirements, and discuss solar + storage implementation as Advanced Transmission Technologies.
