Through their ESMP filings, Massachusetts utilities are looking at ways to improve long-term load forecasting using advanced approaches. Panelists will go over approaches and challenges to forecasting five and 10-year plans and beyond given forecast uncertainty and unprecedented clean energy goals. The session will include discussion of how model and plan for electric demand reliably and the broader impact to the system from disruptive technologies such as EV charging and electric heat pumps.
