Advanced Grid Technology Acceleration Projects
The California Energy Commission is funding demonstration projects for advanced grid technologies under the EPIC program, with selected projects providing performance validation and deployment data to inform statewide grid modernization. Projects must demonstrate novel or emerging grid technologies—including but not limited to microgrids, energy storage systems, demand response platforms, distribution automation, or grid sensors—at utility or community scale. Successful applicants will receive funding to build working installations and generate field performance data that utilities and regulators will use to evaluate technology readiness for broader California deployment.
