The New York PSC has ordered that each investor-owned electric utility shall each deploy two energy storage projects by the end of 2018

"By no later than December 31, 2018, each individual utility must have energy storage projects deployed and operating at no fewer than two separate distribution substations or feeders," the PSC mandated in an order on the utilities' Distributed System Implementation Platforms

The utilities, "should strive to perform at least two types of grid functions with the deployed energy storage resources (e.g., increasing hosting capacity and peak load reduction)," the PSC directed.

The PSC said in its order that the use of energy storage as part of a Non-Wires Alternatives or demonstration project would be acceptable to comply with the directive listed above

The PSC in its order said that, "Utility ownership of DER contemplated here, where energy storage will be integrated into distribution grid architecture, is a permissible exception to the basic presumption that utility ownership of DER conflicts with REV’s underlying tenet that competitive markets and risk-based capital should fund asset development."

The PSC's order on the Distributed System Implementation Platforms also establishes procedures for making aggregate customer data available to distributed generation providers and requires the utilities to improve online portals to provide information to help DER developers and projects to interconnect with the electric grid
