Unlock DER value with smart use of DER assets

Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) aren’t just backup. They’re revenue and cost-control tools hiding in plain sight.

That’s the lesson readers learn from Alyssa Schmidt, Energy Markets Analyst at PowerSecure, when they download this Ask the Expert on unlocking DER value. Schmidt explains:

• Important considerations you need to know about DER optimization, including microgrid investment and planning strategies
• Ways C&I organizations can achieve energy cost reduction as well as DER value stacking and monetization
• Technologies — such as battery energy storage — that are expanding what’s possible for commercial and industrial energy cost reduction

Reducing energy expenses no longer comes down to a single decision. It requires a coordinated strategy, one that looks across on-site assets, utility programs and market opportunities to uncover where real value exists. Understanding how these pieces fit together is key to maximizing long-term returns.
