Clean energy software firm Smarter Grid Solutions (SGS) has developed five methods that could double the capacity available for solar panels and other distributed energy resources (DERs) to connect to individual electricity substations.

​The release of ANM Strata 3.0, Smarter Grid Solutions’ third generation DERMS, moves power companies a step closer to being able to monitor and manage tens of thousands of distributed energy resources (DER) simultaneously.

​Having implemented the flexible interconnection of over 400MW, I believe that Smarter Grid Solutions (SGS) has added more autonomously controlled Distributed Energy Resources (DER) to the grid than most. Here are a few lessons, some after much difficulty, that we’ve learned along the way which may be of help if you are purchasing and deploying DERMS.

​As the dust settles after the 9 August 2019 blackout that affected around 1 million UK customers, we thought it worth reflecting more specifically on the implications for the UK’s Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) as they begin preparations for their next regulatory settlement, RIIO-ED2.

The prototype Real Time Fault Level Monitors help SP Energy Networks actively manage its network by measuring and managing the fault level of electric power supply in real time. The trials are currently taking place in substations across Chester, Warrington and Liverpool.

​Projects that could save energy customers hundreds of millions of dollars will be put center stage at this week’s DistribuTech 2020 (DTECH) convention by technology company Smarter Grid Solutions (SGS) and electricity distributor UK Power Networks.

​Smarter Grid Solutions (SGS) is rolling out its new Distributed Energy Resources Management System (DERMS) Customer Portal in the US after successful deployment in the UK.
