The Integrated System Planning Forum provides a platform for planners, system operators, researchers, and consultants to discuss, work through, and advance the integration of electric system planning for generation, transmission, distribution, and load. The Forum provides an opportunity for all who are interested to learn about best practices, tools, and data for integrated electric system planning.  The forum organizes presentations covering recent examples of integrated planning, examples of tools that can link together to provide integrations, and industry needs and research gaps.
