The Department of Energy (DOE) is offering a grant to conduct research, development, and demonstrations focused on sensor and modeling approaches to enhance observability and controllability of power systems with Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). The aim is to increase hosting capacity for DERs, such as energy storage, by utilizing low-cost sensors and improved modeling techniques. This grant seeks to unlock new value propositions, including reducing ancillary resource requirements and enhancing grid reliability and resilience against various hazards. Applications are accepted until November 10, 2016.

Description: | Funding Opportunity Announcement DE-FOA-0001616The Department of Energy (DOE), National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), on behalf of the Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability (OE), is seeking applications under this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), herein referred to as Announcement, to conduct research, development and demonstrations (RD&D). This RD&D, in the areas of low cost sensors and improved modeling using sensor data input, will lead to enhanced observability and controllability of power systems to support increased hosting capacity for distributed energy resources (DERs), including energy storage. Capturing the benefits commonly attributed to DERs and/or microgrids, as well as establishing new value propositions that could be enabled by these RD&D efforts is the focus of this FOA. New value propositions could include, but are not limited to, mitigating ancillary resource requirements and meeting the growing demand for reliable and resilient grid operations against outages under all-hazards conditions. |
