DER & Inverter-Based Resources Subcommittee

The DER & Inverter-Based Resources Subcommittee (DIRS) is an ongoing subcommittee established by the Market Implementation Committee (MIC) at its July 8, 2020 meeting. The purpose of the DIRS is to provide a stakeholder forum to investigate and resolve specific issues and procedures in accordance with PJM stakeholder process protocols related to Distributed Energy Resources (DER) and inverter-based resources. For the purposes of this subcommittee, DER is defined as any generation or electric energy storage resource connected to the distribution system and/or behind a load meter. Inverter-based resources are any resource type using powered electronic equipment to convert direct current to alternating current (DC-to-AC) in order to synchronize to the electric system.
