Move from Fragmented Models to Comprehensive Clarity: Modeling Resource Adequacy (RA) Accurately Under Grid Stress
Resource adequacy teams are facing pressure to deliver more accurate and more complete models across regions and scenario types, even as grid strain accelerates. AI-related load growth, queue delays, and weather risks have made resource adequacy more critical than ever – and more challenging.
In this live webinar, Mark Olson, Reliability Assessment Manager at North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), joins PowerGEM’s SERVM experts to share how interconnection-wide reporting can help resource adequacy and planning teams make more data-driven and transparent decisions.
You’ll walk away with practical insights to improve integrated resource planning (IRP) and RA filings, reduce risk, and communicate resource needs clearly to stakeholders.
