ATLANTA, GA., May 10, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ScottMadden, Inc., one of North America's leading energy consulting firms, recently released its newest edition of The Energy Industry Update. This semi-annual publication offers our inside view of major events and emerging trends in the energy industry and is received by more than 10,000 industry leaders.
ScottMadden's Energy Industry Update examines grid transformation and focuses on how paths to the future diverge. As distributed energy resources (DERs) proliferate, different jurisdictions and utilities therein are taking different approaches to adapting the traditional regulatory construct. What are the responses? What are the key questions being asked? What is happening in places like Minnesota and Virginia? Find out in the latest ScottMadden Energy Industry Update here.
"States are experimenting with different approaches to accommodate DER, from both a financial and a regulatory perspective. Responses differ depending upon their existing market structure and whether a commission is comfortable with experimenting through pilot programs and moving regulatory constructs incrementally," said Cristin Lyons, partner and grid transformation practice leader at ScottMadden.
