Field Data: The Benefits of Control at the Grid Edge

view archive

Opportunities for electric utilities to extend control of the grid to the edge have been slowed dramatically by the need for field trials to validate the economic benefits of new equipment and software capabilities.

Recently, these some of these edge technologies proved they can achieve sizable operational and economic benefits through multiple Volt/VAR optimization objectives including:

  1. Cutting peak demand by 5%
  2. Enabling distribution energy efficiency through CVR
  3. Mitigating the negative power quality effect of solar
  4. Maximizing asset utilitzation

On this webinar, live field data will demonstrate specific grid edge problems observed at utilities, and also show the positive impact of a solution deployed at the grid edge to achieve objectives such as Peak Demand Reduction and improvement of PV solar voltage quality.
