Distributed Energy Resource Integration

Managing the proliferation of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) such as solar, wind, and energy storage is crucial for maintaining grid stability, especially as the number of overloaded, aging distribution transformers increases. Edge Zero provides the real-time visibility and actionable insights needed to safely and effectively integrate DERs into low voltage networks, ensuring resilience and efficiency.

Informed DER Integration

Seamless, Scalable Integration of DERs into the Grid

Real-time Monitoring

Edge Zero’s sensors continuously monitor DER activity, providing instant visibility into grid performance, ensuring utilities can respond to fluctuations caused by DERs.

Bidirectional Power Flow Management

Our solutions are designed to handle the bidirectional power flows introduced by DERs, allowing utilities to manage complex energy inputs and outputs effectively.

Proactive Voltage Regulation

Edge Zero enables utilities to maintain voltage stability despite the unpredictable nature of DER inputs, supporting smooth and stable grid operation.

Meeting the Demands of Modern Grids

DERs pose numerous opportunities – and several challenges. From preventing overloading and voltage instability to operational inefficiencies, Edge Zero’s advanced monitoring and analytics solutions give utilities the visibility they need to proactively manage DERs and keep their networks resilient. 

Preparing Your Distribution Grid for DERs

Edge Zero helps optimize your grid to support DER integration. Our real-time monitoring and predictive analytics ensure that you can address the operational strain caused by increased DER activity, allowing for smoother integration without the need for extensive grid overhauls.

Real-Time DER Insights

Leverage Data for Smarter DER Management

The EdgeConnected platform processes data from the EdgeSensor in real time, providing utilities with detailed insights into DER performance, usage patterns and grid impact. This enables better decision-making, that can be integrated with most control platforms to optimize energy asset dispatch..

Program Design for Strategic DER Utilization

To maximize the benefits of DERs, utilities need comprehensive data insights that allow for informed decision-making in load management and grid resiliency planning. Edge Zero provides the foundation for utilities to design programs that optimize the use of DERs while maintaining grid stability. 

  • Develop smarter load management programs 
  • Enhance demand response initiatives 
  • Strengthen grid resiliency 
  • Plan for future expansion 
  • And more 

Through these capabilities, utilities and energy markets can optimize the value of DERs, contributing to a more resilient, efficient and supporting asset-owner choice.
