How is your utility handling the challenges to traditional distribution planning processes presented by the rapid growth of DER?

This whitepaper from DNV addresses challenges to the traditional distribution planning processes, discussing the different data types which can be used by the utilities and the data analysis processes and assumptions.

The whitepaper examines:

The transition from peak load planning to time series analysis
The various types of data used for developing load profiles
Three different data collection scenarios:
- SCADA data
- SCADA with separate load and generation meters
- AMI data, customer classes
Practicality vs. accuracy for data collection methods
