FERC Order 2222 - Impact on Utility Auditing?

I keep seeing references to FERC Order 2222 in trade publications but I'm not clear on how it might impact our utility auditing work. Something about distributed energy resources and aggregation? Can anyone explain what this means for utility bills and rate structures? Are we going to see new types of charges or credits that we need to watch for?

FERC Order 2222 is about allowing distributed energy resources (like customer solar, batteries, demand response) to participate in wholesale electricity markets through aggregation. The impact on utility auditing will likely be indirect - we may start seeing new tariff schedules for customers participating in aggregated programs, new types of credits or payments for grid services, and more complex billing structures. It's still early days for implementation, but worth keeping an eye on as it rolls out over the next few years.
