Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) play a crucial role in enhancing grid resilience, promoting renewable energy integration, and enabling more efficient energy management. Integrating DERs into modern energy systems is essential for building a more sustainable, resilient, and efficient energy infrastructure that meets the evolving needs of society while addressing environmental challenges. This process required standardization, leading to the establishment of IEEE 1547. Today, IEEE 1547 serves as a widely recognized and adopted standard for DER interconnection worldwide, providing a framework for ensuring safety, reliability and grid compatibility of distributed generation resources.
In this white paper from WAGO, learn more about IEEE 1547 and how it governs the integration of DERs into modern energy systems.
