In this week’s episode of the EPRI Current, Dave Weaver from Exelon, Clift Pompee from Compass Datacenters, and Anuja Ratnayake from EPRI join host Samantha Gilman to discuss how new approaches to flexibility can accelerate grid connections amid surging demand.
Experts focus on EPRI’s recently launched Flex MOSAIC™, a framework developed through EPRI’s DCFlex initiative to define what flexibility means in practice by creating a shared, performance-based language between utilities and large load customers. By defining five distinct classes of flexibility with clear parameters such as notification time, duration, and frequency of use, Flex MOSAIC™ helps align expectations upfront and reduce the ambiguity that has historically slowed interconnection.
Tune in to hear about how concepts like “headroom” and performance-based flexibility classes can help unlock existing grid capacity, reduce interconnection timelines, and support reliability. With perspectives from across the energy ecosystem, the episode highlights both the opportunity and the coordination required to enable faster, more adaptive grid integration.
EPRI Current examines key issues and new R&D impacting the energy transition. Each episode features insights from EPRI, the world's preeminent independent, non-profit energy research and development organization, and from other energy industry leaders. We also discuss how innovative technologies are shaping the global energy future. Learn more at www.epri.com
