Analyzing emerging issues in distributed energy and storage
What We Do
EMP conducts research for and provides technical assistance to decision-makers on key planning, regulatory, and economic issues related to the growth and impact of distributed energy and storage technologies.
Our Approach
EMP’s research on distributed energy and storage includes foundational market data collection and analysis, in-depth topical research, and technical assistance. Key outputs include annual data products covering aspects of distributed energy and storage markets, along with accompanying data tools. Our topical research on distributed energy and storage covers a broad range of subjects, including adoption and pricing dynamics, program evaluation, grid integration and planning, alternate rate designs and business models, and customer and community impacts. Drawing on that body of research, EMP provides technical assistance to regulators, planners, industry, utilities, and other stakeholders participating in or impacted by distributed energy and storage markets.
