Summary:Summary form only given. This paper assumes that DER will have a significant presence in the market and addresses how the grid needs to accommodate DER, as opposed to the current treatment where DER must accommodate the grid. Three topics are explored: customer-side protection schemes and utility standby treatment in the event DER is not available during times of system peaks or constraints; how certain DER provides firm capacity to meet resource adequacy requirements; and lastly, the business and technical case for micro grids
