Improving Net Load Forecasting Models by Integrating Data on Behind-the-Meter Resources

The California Energy Commission is funding research to improve net load forecasting models by integrating Behind-the-Meter resource data—solar, storage, and demand flexibility—to help grid operators and market participants optimize generation reserves and real-time dispatch. Projects that enhance forecast accuracy for distributed energy resources will directly support California's grid reliability and decarbonization targets.
