FERC Order 2222 and DER Policy Collaboration
Collaborating for Successful DER
Implementation in the U.S.A
Webinar: Introduction to FERC Order 2222 and DER Policy Tracking
About FERC Order 2222
FERC ORDER 2222 is an opportunity for the electric industry to collaborate and effectively enable DERs to become reliable and effective resources for the grid and markets.
FERC Order 2222 has been incorrectly viewed as a burden rather than the incredible opportunity that it represents for the electric industry to collaborate and create consistent and effective policy for the integration of DERs. Without FERC Order 2222, 3000+ utilities, the ISOs and state regulators would be approaching DER Policy ‘ad hoc’ individually.
This project is designed to help highlight and track the key issues related to policy creation and implementation to foster a collaborative effort to allow DERs to become an effective tool for use in our grid and markets. Working collaboratively, it is possible to significantly reduce the cost of implementation and improve the value DERs will provide going forward.
Policy Tracker
The Policy Tracker is intended 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. The Policy Tracker is searchable by RTO/ISO, state, and policy issue.
CUS invites state commissions and RTOs/ISOs to assist us in crowdsourcing information to be included in the Policy Tracker. Please contact us with suggested additions.
DER Policy Discussion Groups
The DER Policy Discussion Group will provide a secure environment for policy makers to discuss key issues. There will be a separate discussion group for each of these key issues as well as a “General” discussion group for any other topics. These groups will be a space for secure discussions amongst policy makers and are not intended for public use, therefore users of these discussion groups will be required to have a valid email from an approved regulatory authority to participate.
As we develop the Discussion Group feature we invite policy makers to provide recommendations and feedback regarding key issues and specific discussion groups. If you are interested in offering input or learning more about this upcoming feature of the FERC Order 2222 and DER Policy Collaboration website please visit the Discussion Group page.

DER Policy Discussion Groups
The DER Policy Discussion Group has been created to provide a secure environment for policy makers to discuss key issues. Each of these key issues has their own discussion group. In addition, there is a “General” discussion group for any other topics. If anyone feels that there is another specific topic area that deserves its own individual group, please contact us. In addition, if anyone would like a discussion group for a specific organization, please contact us.
You will be required to have an approved email from an approved regulatory authority to participate in these discussion groups.
To sign up for the group discussions (click here).
These groups will not be curated/managed and are designed to allow free form, but secure, discussion for policy makers are not public. If there is inappropriate content posted, please contact us for our review. Your participation can be revoked if you post inappropriate content.

Welcome to the first report in a new series that will track and dive deep into DER policy implementation at the state and regional level. Collaborative Utility Solutions is pleased to announce that DOE has hired our team to launch a FERC Order 2222 and DER Policy Implementation Tracker at FERC2222.org. With this report and the website (FERC2222.org), state commission staff, interested researchers and all stakeholders interested in DER policy will have access to the latest and most useful information on FERC Order 2222 and DER policy.
