Case Seeks Public Input on Metrics
Hallowell, Maine – The Maine Public Utilities Commission (MPUC) opened a case today to consider performance metrics and alternative regulatory mechanisms for Maine’s transmission and distribution (T&D) utilities. The ultimate goal is to develop metrics that will improve performance while controlling costs. The MPUC is soliciting information and input from any interested persons to assist in determining whether existing metrics and performance incentives should be revised, or new metrics adopted to better measure and motivate service quality improvements and customer service performance.
“Maine people deserve safe, reliable electricity at reasonable rates,” said MPUC Chairman Philip L. Bartlett II. This proceeding will enable us to explore ways to improve utility performance and how best to balance improved service and cost concerns.

The Sunverge Energy Platform and its advanced self-learning algorithms, built on over a decade of smart grid experience, optimizes how DERs are controlled, orchestrated and aggregated. Advanced capabilities such as real-time granular behind the meter visibility and control are becoming increasingly important as DER proliferation continues and utilities are embarking on the aggregation and integration of DERs into core operations such as distribution grid operation, automation and planning along with aggregating DERs for participation in wholesale markets for ancillary services. Sunverge s software provides the unique ability to dynamically value stack and co-optimize multiple services on both sides of the meter, thereby offering value to the consumer while also adding value to the utility s grid operations in addition to providing the ability to bid aggregated ancillary services such as capacity and frequency regulation in wholesale markets.
