Our Mission

To facilitate collaboration among state regulators and interested parties by sharing information on key policy issues to be addressed by the states and industry organizations as they implement FERC Order 2222 and DER Policy.

By creating an accessible, centralized repository of key resources and updates, this site aims to help stakeholders better understand how FERC Order 2222 is being implemented across the country. In doing so, it supports a more informed and coordinated approach to integrating distributed energy resources (DERs) — ultimately helping to smooth the energy transition and foster a more flexible and resilient grid.

FERC2222.org is part of a larger collaborative effort to allow Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) to become an effective tool for use in our grid and markets.

What is ferc order 2222?

FERC Order 2222 is intended to facilitate DER Participation in the regional electricity market through aggregations

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) issued Order No. 2222 in 2020 (updated in 2021) with the goal of better enabling distributed energy resources (DERs) to participate in the electricity markets run by regional grid operators.

Individually, small DERs might not be large enough to participate in regional electricity markets, however when they are combined into an aggregation, the output and activity of several or many DERs can satisfy minimum size and performance requirements for participation established by the RTO.
