Grid-edge DERMS: An enterprise platform built to manage DERs at scale
A new phase of distributed energy resource management is on the horizon. A dramatic increase in the uptake of DERs is playing out in parallel with utilities setting aggressive decarbonization goals.
Instead of shaping energy generation to meet demand, utilities are starting to think about shaping demand to meet renewable generation. To proactively take advantage of the flexibility provided by DERs to meet these objectives, utilities are implementing innovative DER management strategies.
Successful implementation of these strategies requires utilities to deploy a platform that is built to address the unique aspects of working with customer-owned DERs – a grid-edge DERMS. This paper explains challenges unique to grid-edge DER management, defines a grid-edge DERMS, and outlines key capabilities.
