Massachusetts can make ‘bottom-up’ distribution reforms for a better grid
- •Massachusetts is considering adopting a Distribution System Operator (DSO) structure to modernize its electricity grid.
- •The proposed DSO model aims to create a cleaner, more flexible, and more affordable grid, indicating potential for improved market access and cost efficiencies for distributed resources and large loads.
- •This 'bottom-up' reform represents a significant policy shift that could streamline interconnection processes and enhance the integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) like solar and storage.
