The Grand Central Optimization Paradime
The two ways of looking at this are, do we want a future system where the transmission operator who operates the high voltage grid, essentially extends its control and optimization to these distributed devices? Or as an alternative, createa really clear boundary at the t d interface, and say the transmission system operator is only concerned with what's going on above that boundary. And below that, the distribution system operator is now in charge of managing allof the coordination and optimizing at the local level in that area. That would be a very different structural arrangement in terms of te companies that are doing things and what their responsibilities are.
