Commonwealth Edison (ComEd) has seen an influx of customer owned distributed energy resources (DER) within its service territory. Grid planners continually study the effects these added resources have on the grid to ensure that reliability and safety are maintained. The presenters in this session will share how advanced analytics can be used to guide grid investments by leveraging data about individual electric vehicles (EV) ownership and public charging stations within its service territory.

Key Takeaways

• Advanced analytics with DER and EV ownership data can unlock immense value for utilities
• Use cases demonstrate how customer programs that drive customer satisfaction and savings, can also enhance grid planning that supports grid stability and safety
• This nuanced approach to DER data requires advanced analytics capabilities and strong collaboration between customer analytics and grid analytics teams
