As part of an agreement filed by the DG Working Group in September 2013 utilities host DG Interconnection Workshops on a monthly basis.
Starting March 2022 DOER was no longer posting presentations at this website (the former web page was archived on January 6, 2022). As of June 12, 2024, presentation slides can now be found at the state website for Interconnection in MA.
Those interested in registering for future workshops should contact the utilities directly. The 2024 schedule can be found below.
Eversource Workshops are listed below as Eversource East (EMA) and Eversource West (WMA). To register attendees must email Elaine.Zimmerman@Eversource.com, including full name / company name / e-mail / telephone number. Past seminars can be found on the Eversource Interconnection Resources web page.
Registration and information on National Grid Interconnection Workshops can be found on the National Grid MA DG Stakeholder Meetings web page.
