This report identifies DF considerations, provisions, incentives, and requirements in building policies and programs. State Energy Offices and other state and local authorities are driven by goals of saving energy, reducing costs, enhancing building stock, reducing greenhouse gas and other emissions, and supporting energy system reliability and resilience.

The IEEE Std 1547-2018 is a voluntary standard that requires DERs to be capable of providing specific grid supportive functionalities relating to voltage, frequency, communications and controls, transforming how they interact with the electric distribution system. This reference guide presents the major revisions and updates to the previous IEEE Std 1547-2003 standard.

Senate Bill 49 gives the California Energy Commission (CEC) the authority to set flexible demand appliance standards and labeling requirements. The flexible demand appliance standards may include communication protocol requirements so that appliances can respond to grid conditions, price signals, or GHG emissions content of electricity supplies or a combination. The standards may also include minimum load-shift performance requirements to ensure that appliances react in a way that yields benefits to the grid and the consumer.

This report discusses the landscape of building codes and standards in the U.S. and offers recommendations for regulators to consider to promote electrification and decarbonization.
