Independent Consulting Services
Independent Consulting
For more than six years of independent consulting, Rakon Energy®, LLC has been grateful for a diverse client base leveraging Rao Konidena’s Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) experience in reliability studies, transmission, demand response, energy storage, and electricity markets.
Clients include renewable developers and their associations, consumer and environmental advocates, aggregators and their associations, training companies, and MISO, SPP, PJM, and NYISO market participants. For these clients (some are repeat clients), Rakon has provided testimony support in Base Rate Cases, Integrated Resource Planning and Transmission Line Certificate of Public Convenience and Need (CPCN) proceedings and specific MISO, SPP, PJM, and NYISO guidance for their business needs.
Potential clients should contact Rao directly to find out if he can address your business needs or suggest someone.
Distributed Energy Resources
The goal of Rakon Energy’s work is to push the envelope on Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Order 2222 to enable DERs and advanced demand response (auto DR), and Order 841 to enable Electric Storage Resources to participate in independent wholesale electric markets in a full, fair, and openly transparent manner through the use of 3rd party aggregators.
Aggregated DERs have multiple grid benefits, including responding quickly to grid emergencies and preventing blackouts.
