SUMMARY:Webinar: Analyzing Resource Adequacy Across the Eastern Interconnect Using GridPath
DESCRIPTION:Download Presentation \n\n\n\nView Webinar Recording \n\n\n\nDownload the Q&A \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers: Derek Stenclik\, Founding Partner\, Telos Energy; Sam Hostetter\, Senior Power System Analyst\, Telos Energy \n\n\n\nWebinar Abstract: This webinar will present key findings from a wide-area resource adequacy assessment of the Eastern Interconnection using the open-source GridPath platform. The study\, conducted by GridLab and Telos Energy\, evaluates the role of interregional transmission in mitigating loss of load risk across diverse regions under varying system conditions. Results highlight how coordinated planning and regional diversity can enhance reliability\, particularly in the face of resource retirements and growing weather-driven risk. The session will also discuss policy and planning implications for resource adequacy programs and transmission development. \n\n\n\nAbout the Speakers: Derek Stenclik is a founding partner of Telos Energy and is an industry leader in power grid planning\, operations\, and reliability. He has over a decade of experience helping clients across the electric power industry navigate evolving markets\, adapt to rapidly changing technologies\, and accelerate clean energy integration. He is a recognized expert on wind and solar integration\, battery energy storage\, and grid planning. He is passionate about guiding the development of the future power grid and accelerating renewable energy adoption. \n\n\n\nPrior to founding Telos Energy\, Derek spent eight years in GE Power’s Energy Consulting department\, most recently as the Senior Manager of Power System Strategy. In that role he supported global clients across the energy industry\, including utilities\, grid operators\, developers\, equity investors\, and NGOs. He also provided power market expertise across GE’s portfolio of businesses\, including the GE Power\, Renewables and Capital divisions. \n\n\n\nDerek graduated with an M.S. degree in Applied Economics and Management from Cornell University\, with a concentration in Environmental and Natural Resource Economics. He also holds a B.A. in International Relations from the State University of New York\, College at Geneseo\, where he graduated Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. \n\n\n\nSam Hostetter is a Senior Power System Analyst of Telos Energy and brings expertise in power systems regulation and data analysis. For the past 5 years\, Sam has worked closely with wholesale energy market data and developed data visualizations and reports to a range of audiences.   \n\n\n\nPrior to joining Telos Energy\, he worked for ISO New England in their Internal Market Monitoring team. The Internal Market Monitoring team provides constant market assessments and reports\, along with daily detection and mitigation of anti-competitive behavior in New England’s wholesale energy market. Sam’s work specialized in tracking the ever-changing New England capacity market and referring incidents of generator non-compliance to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. \n\n\n\nModerator: James Okullo\, Director of System Planning\, ESIG \n\n\n\nRegistration Cost: FREE \n\n\n\nQ&A Session: We will be using the Slido platform for Q&A.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Minimum System Demand Issues and Impacts of High DPV at AEMO
DESCRIPTION:Download Presentation \nView Webinar Recording \nDownload Q&A \n\nDr. Jenny Riesz \nFeatured Speaker: Jenny Riesz\, Manager of Operational DER Management\, Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) \nWebinar Abstract: The Australian National Electricity Market (NEM) is now operating in some periods with more than half of supply coming from distributed photovoltaics: customer rooftops. In some regions such as South Australia\, the amount of generation from rooftops now exceeds the total demand for the region in some periods. This presentation will cover AEMO’s analysis to model and understand likely DER behaviors and power system operational limits when operating the power system under these novel very low demand conditions. This includes examining bulk rooftop PV behaviors in past power system incidents based on large novel datasets\, development and validation of power system models to replicate these behaviors in power system studies\, and analysis to assess power system limits under very low demand conditions. \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Jenny Riesz is the Manager of Operational DER Management at the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO)\, a team within AEMO’s Operations division that has responsibility for integrating Distributed Energy Resources (DER) into AEMO’s operational functions. This includes analyzing DER performance and behaviors during power system disturbances\, development of new procedures and processes for operational management of Minimum System Load (MSL) periods\, development and validation of power system models for assessing DER impacts on system security and power system limits\, and uplift of operational technology to manage DER. Prior to this\, Jenny was at the University of New South Wales (UNSW)\, doing research on 100% renewable power systems\, and a consultant at ROAM Consulting\, delivering analysis on renewable integration. \nModerator: Debbie Lew\, Executive Director\, ESIG \nRegistration Cost: FREE \nQ&A Session: We will be using the Slido platform for Q&A.

SUMMARY:GPST/ESIG Webinar: Unlocking DER Flexibility: Grid Services\, Value Stacking\, and Market Integration
DESCRIPTION:View Webinar Recording \nDownload Presentation \nDownload Q&A \n\n \nFeatured Speakers: Tanguy Hubert\, Senior Principal Technical Leader\, EPRI and Waleed Aslam\, Senior Engineer\, EPRI \nWebinar Abstract: As distributed energy resources (DERs) continue to scale across the grid\, utilities and system operators are increasingly focused on unlocking their flexibility to enhance grid reliability\, resilience\, and decarbonization. Grid services—ranging from wholesale market participation to local distribution-level products—offer a promising yet complex path to monetize DER capabilities. However\, realizing this potential requires navigating evolving regulations\, overcoming technical and economic hurdles\, and aligning stakeholder interests. \nThis webinar will offer a structured overview of the evolving DER flexibility landscape\, with a focus on four key areas: \n\nGrid Services Spectrum: An exploration of the full range of services DERs can provide\, and how these fit within the broader flexibility ecosystem.\nWholesale Market Participation: An update on key mechanisms—including participation models and implications of FERC Order No. 2222.\nDistribution-Level Services: A look at emerging use cases and pilot efforts in the U.S. and Europe.\nValue Stacking: Definitions\, practical applications\, challenges with prioritization\, and open policy and technical questions.\n\nThe session will conclude with insights into current research\, including: the standardization of DSO-DERA interactions; the categories of access costs DERAs should account when considering wholesale market participation; broader billing and settlement complexities. \nAbout the Speakers: Tanguy Hubert is a Senior Principal Technical Leader in EPRI’s DER integration program. He leads research on the economic\, market\, and policy aspects of grid services provided by DERs\, along with the associated enabling technologies\, such as DERMS. He holds a Diplôme d’Ingénieur in Energy Systems from CentraleSupélec\, and an M.S. and a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Georgia Tech. \nWaleed Aslam is a Senior Engineer at EPRI where he focuses on market operations and design\, emerging technology integration\, and production cost modeling. Prior to joining EPRI\, Waleed completed his Ph.D. in Systems Engineering from Boston University\, where his research centered on grid service provision from buildings and improving efficiency in electricity distribution. He holds an M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from North Carolina State University\, where he was a Fulbright Scholar\, and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Lahore University of Management Sciences. \nModerator: Erik Ela\, Director of System Operation and Electricity Markets\, ESIG \nRegistration Cost: FREE \nQ&A Session: We will be using the Slido platform for Q&A.
