NEW on the blog: Our proposal to unlock battery exports in California is gaining momentum. Regulatory Affairs Manager Collin Smith has the story: https://lnkd.in/e9btQcAt 🔋 A simple change to how demand response performance is measured in California would provide an incentive for batteries to export, increasing the value that batteries can earn in the wholesale market. #BatteryStorage #EnergyStorage #VirtualPowerPlants #VPPs #California #EnergyTransition
