• Small-scale power grid
• Grouping of interconnected
loads and distributed energy
resources
• Can operate in island mode
or grid-connected if desired
• Can connect and disconnect
from the grid if desired
• Acts as a single controllable
entity to the grid

What we are learning
Stakeholder Survey

Top 10 Barriers Average
score
Lack of policies or regulations that enable microgrids 4.1
Interconnection rules impose limitations on microgrids 4.0
Utility franchise rights inhibit microgrid deployment 4.0
Existing retail tariffs do not allow all microgrid
benefits to be monetized 3.9
High cost of meeting interconnection requirements 3.8
Lack of direct access to wholesale markets do not
allow all microgrid benefits to be monetized 3.7
Lack of utility understanding of the impacts of end
user microgrids to the utility 3.6
Adequacy of IEEE technical standards to address
integration and operation of microgrids 3.5
Lack of clearly defined roles and responsibilities
between utility and microgrids 3.5
Lack of standardized method to establish cost and
value of microgrids to various stakeholders 3.5

California's Energy Storage Roadmap
Energy Commission Actions:
• Refine valuation methodologies and make
models publically available
• Disseminate information on currently
available models for energy storage
valuation
• Lead a working group to standardize
telemetry requirements
• Research/evaluate improved IOU
telemetry requirements
• Lead a working group to establish a
certification process for integrated
metering
• Create a framework for CAISO and utility
to share meter data
• Lead a working group to standardize
certification requirements

Electrification of the Transportation Sector: Los
Angeles Air Force Base Vehicle-to-Grid
Demonstration • This is the first large-scale research
project to demonstrate full V2G
capability.
• The goal is for the base to use electric
vehicles to co-optimize building load and
participation in the California ISO’s
ancillary services markets.
• These capabilities will be integrated and
optimized using software also being
developed through the project.
• This project will allow other entities to
benefit from these advances and
lessons, and will help improve the value
proposition of owning electric vehicles.
