DER Registry
Empowering the Energy Transition

The DER Registry is a secure, national-scale cloud platform built to mitigate the challenges DERs pose so we can all start harnessing the opportunities DERs bring.

FERC Order 2222

Tracking Initiative

CUS is pleased to announce that DOE has hired our team to launch a FERC Order 2222 and DER Policy Implementation Tracker at FERC2222.org. The “Policy Tracker”, to be updated monthly, will assist regulators, regulatory staff, industry stakeholders, and the general public in staying abreast of DER integration activities across the states and RTOs/ISOs. 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.
