The Toolkit contains the following practical and powerful enablers with new and updated Distributed Energy Resources specific requirements:


STEP 1: Get your bearings

Start with...

  • The latest quick edition of the Distributed Energy Resources Self Assessment book in PDF containing 49 requirements to perform a quickscan, get an overview and share with stakeholders.

Organized in a data driven improvement cycle RDMAICS (Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Sustain), check the…

  • Example pre-filled Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard to get familiar with results generation

Then find your goals...


STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track

Featuring 998 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Distributed Energy Resources improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 998 standard requirements:

  1. Do you design, manufacture, market, install, service, repair, supply or perform another function relating to high energy efficiency building products, or building energy management products?

  2. How would a grid interactive bolt on feature provide value to system operators in providing ancillary and grid balancing services critical for the increasing integration of wind resources?

  3. How do you use accessible, affordable distributed computing resources to provide accelerated, ondemand, interactive modelling and simulation for a wide range of applications?

  4. How can small, power limited devices store data in the cloud, communicate with each other at globe spanning distances, and get the most useful information to the user?

  5. How do renewable energy targets and energy efficiency targets perform against the principles of cost effectiveness, environmental effectiveness and equity?

  6. How should the task force use computational resources and the distributed information available to it to the best advantage in pursuing its mission?

  7. What is a proportionate way to address cybersecurity risks, in particular risks to the electricity system, of smart charging of electric vehicles?

  8. Why should it be any less appropriate to consider the potential for more accurate demand side responses when evaluating a supply side restraint?

  9. Do you design, manufacture, supply, install, or maintain energy efficiency or high efficiency products, or provide energy efficiency services?

  10. Do you manufacture, distribute/supply, install, repair, or maintain communications and monitoring technology to monitor or manage energy use?

Results

With this Three Step process you will have all the tools you need for any Distributed Energy Resources project with this in-depth Distributed Energy Resources Toolkit.

In using the Toolkit you will be better able to:

  • Diagnose Distributed Energy Resources projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices
  • Implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals
  • Integrate recent advances in Distributed Energy Resources and put process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines

Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role; In EVERY company, organization and department.

Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'

This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Distributed Energy Resources investments work better.

This Distributed Energy Resources All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
