DER Siting and Optimization tool for CaliforniaApproach

Task 1 – Integrated T&D Modeling• Develop CA-representative integrated T&D power-flow model• Collect, convert, test, and validate datasets required to enable T&D co-simulation

Task 2 – Mapping Platform• Develop mapping and visualization capabilities• Integrate all three main model components: behind-the-meter models, T&D model, visualization

Task 3 – Model Automation for DER Adoption Patterns• Collect new DER-CAM datasets / update existing ones• Enable automated DER-CAM model creation, parallel optimizations, automated data exchange

Task 4 – Characterization of Feeder Loads• Identify and collect distribution datasets required to build representative CA T&D model• Develop and apply load disaggregation methods

Task 5 – Demonstration and DER Market Concepts• Select and conduct a demonstration case focusing on how this project complements and/or exceeds current DRP process• Develop high-level DER market concepts focusing on revenue streams of DER-based solutions and DER potential as grid asset

Task 6 – Dissemination and Training• Prepare project specific documentation and scientific publications• Develop interactive training material, tutorial videos, and organize training sessions
