PLMA Publishes a Compendium of its 17th PLMA Award Winners’ StoriesHighlights six innovators who launched unique initiatives for managing end use energy loads.Plainfield, IN – November 12, 2020 - PLMA (Peak Load Management Alliance), the voice of load management professionals, today announced the publication of the 17th PLMA Awards Compendium. PLMA’s annual awards program recognizes highly innovative approaches to load management, and honors the practitioners who develop and launch them. The 17th PLMA Awards Compendium is a collection of transcripts from six PLMA Load Management Dialogues (webcasts) hosted over the summer of 2020 with the award winners. These dialogues discuss each award-winning program, including its successes and lessons learned. “Each spring, PLMA honors load management practitioners who have created ground-breaking incentive programs (‘Pacesetters’), implemented leading-edge technologies (‘Pioneers’), and excelled in extraordinary customer engagement (‘Thought Leaders’),” explained PLMA Thought Leadership Co-Chair Michael Ohlsen of the City of Tallahassee Utilities. “This compendium tells their stories and provides examples and opportunities for consideration by other energy professionals." “With the involvement of more than 20 volunteer judges, all of whom are PLMA member practitioners, each award nomination is carefully evaluated by a group of industry peers,” said PLMA Thought Leadership Co-Chair Jenny Roehm of Schneider Electric. “As a result, each program selected for an award and included in this compendium demonstrates a unique and provocative approach to managing the end use loads that contribute to our industry’s collective need to meet peak loads and support the successful grid integration of distributed energy resources.” The 17th PLMA Awards Compendium tells the stories of these initiatives: Pacesetters
