DCPSC Awards $3M for Solar Aggregation Project to Enhance Energy Delivery in Washington, DC
The Public Service Commission of the District of Columbia has awarded a $3 million contract to Ecogy Energy and Ecosuite for a solar aggregation pilot project as part of the PowerPathDC Initiative. This project will utilize existing Ecogy-owned solar systems and enhance them with advanced software and bi-directional communication capabilities.
The initiative will also incorporate energy-efficient technologies, battery storage, and electric vehicle charging stations. The project aims to increase grid flexibility, improve reliability during extreme weather, and ensure equitable access to clean energy. The collaboration between Ecogy and Ecosuite focuses on managing DER aggregation and optimizing integration to benefit District residents and strengthen the local energy grid.
