A working cohort sharpening load forecasting across methods and curves, tools and benchmarking, and the data pipelines underneath, as large loads make the forecast harder and more consequential than ever.
Load forecasting got harder and higher-stakes at the same time. Data centers, electrification, and distributed resources are bending the load curve in ways the old methods were not built for, and the forecast now drives billion-dollar planning and rate decisions.
The Load Forecasting Workshop Series is a working cohort that meets through the year to sharpen the practice, organized into three pods so members can go deep where they need it. It is led by the Load Research & Analytics Committee, with the 2027 series already on the horizon.
Forecasting methodology, from statistical fundamentals to the curve work behind planning and rates.
The tools utilities actually use, and benchmarking results and approaches across peers.
The data plumbing under the forecast, and the business case for investing in it.
One utility membership opens the Load Forecasting Workshop Series and every other committee and program to your whole organization.
