When effectively managed and paired with smart rate design, these resources offer utilities and customers significant economic, operational, and environmental benefits. Maximizing the use of grid assets without increasing peak demand allows utilities to reduce upward rate pressure to benefit customers. Integrating flexible assets with advanced grid monitoring and control schemes provides an opportunity for utilities to strengthen reliability and optimize the sourcing of clean energy resources to meet clean energy goals. Harnessing these trends matters for utilities and supports their role in strengthening the grid. Key enablers that utilities can utilize include innovative rate design (such as revenue decoupling), advanced DER management systems (DERMS), improved load identification and forecasting, and robust customer programs. The shift from being a reactive provider to a proactive partner is essential for utilities to deliver the full value of electrification and DERs to customers by enabling a cleaner, smarter, and more resilient grid.</p>","PeriodicalId":100259,"journal":{"name":"Climate and Energy","volume":"41 12","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144214044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How much power those new plants will generate and how much natural gas they will require remain open questions. A recent study indicates that the vast majority of incremental power demand over the next 15 years could be supplied by solar and wind and that demand for natural gas power may remain relatively flat. However, the Trump administration's dim view of most renewables and clear preference for fossil fuels suggests that, at least for the foreseeable future, things may be different from what the study forecast.

This article analyzes the policies and initiatives undertaken by the Pakistani government, in collaboration with Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) and non-government organizations (NGOs), to address climate change challenges through the adoption of renewable energy solutions. While Pakistan has developed numerous climate and renewable energy policies, there is a significant gap in their execution. Key obstacles include insufficient financial resources, inadequate public awareness, and ineffective regulatory frameworks. This article provides recommendations for Pakistani policymakers to strengthen national legislation and establish more efficient implementation mechanisms. By addressing these challenges, the country can create a more conducive environment for international organizations and MDBs to implement projects effectively.
