For a utility starting a DERMS program, the question is no longer whether to deploy but where to start. In this Factor This webinar, two electric cooperatives share how they got a DERMS program approved, set the rules it launched with and chose their first programs.

Thursday, November 12, 2:00-3:00 p.m. ET, online.
