The American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE) has released a report exploring key issues, and providing recommendations related to evolving utility and other business models for renewable energy. The report, Evolving Business Models for Renewable Energy,
supports ACORE's goal of creating bridges between the renewable
energy and utility sectors with sections on "Renewable Energy
Drivers of Change and Overview of Actions from the Utility
Perspective" and "Distributed Energy: Understanding and
Mitigating Commercial and Regulatory Risks." "The utility sector is well aware of the disruptive nature of distributed renewable energy. ACORE is focused on making this disruption an opportunity for utilities, not a threat," said James Hewett, ACORE's Power Generation & Infrastructure lead, "[which is] essential to the success of all." The report describes suggested outcomes for the successful
integration of renewable energy at scale and spotlights ways in
which concentrated solar power (CSP) and electric vehicles (EV)
are changing the way utilities look at generation, integration
and storage. For more:
