Woods Mackenzie estimates the U.S. could have ~380GW of DERs connected to the grid by 2025, representing tens of millions of DERs entering the ecosystem across many DER asset classes including EV-to-grid and grid-to-EV charging and interconnection, smart solar inverters, energy storage, microgrids, and many other intelligent devices. Together, these will create potentially billions of DER-to-grid transactions. One likely result of this will be the need for a new transaction infrastructure.
