I dont know how relevant this is from grid level, but the Hotel Marcel refurbed a building with DC power. People point out how they use PoE for room lighting, and there are more benefits. https://www.smartbuildingstech.com/intelligent-building-systems/article/21244178/hotel-marcel-where-historic-architecture-meets-smart-netzero-technology https://www.smartbuildingstech.com/intelligent-building-syst...
