Provide a detailed process manual for data sharing and control in aggregated grid edge resource programs. This handbook describes the end-to-end requirements that a grid edge resource aggregator (“Supplier”) must follow to exchange data with Hawaiian Electric’s systems . It covers how participant enrollment data, meter data, forecasts, and event signals are transmitted via a secure File Transfer Protocol (FTP) portal, file structures for data reporting, and testing procedures to onboard aggregators.
