Description
The California Energy Commission intends to award a contract to develop and improve modeling tools that forecast the adoption of behind‑the‑meter photovoltaic (PV) and energy‑storage systems across the state. The effort will involve data collection, analysis, validation, and the creation of actionable insights to support policy and planning initiatives.
• Deliver advanced simulation/forecasting tools for residential and commercial behind‑the‑meter PV and battery storage.
• Collect and validate California‑specific distribution‑level data to underpin model accuracy.
• Produce policy‑relevant reports and visualizations that inform CEC’s clean‑energy adoption strategies.
• Coordinate with CEC staff and possibly other stakeholders to ensure model outputs align with regulatory and market needs.
