DER Integration and Automation Project

closed

The DER Integration and Automation Project project will demonstrate how collaboration between a Distributed Energy Resources Management System (DERMS) and the GreenSync Decentralised Energy Exchange (deX) platform can unlock existing network hosting capacity to enable consumers to gain more value from their energy assets (such as solar, batteries and electric vehicles).Key resultsThis project successfully demonstrated how consumer-owned energy assets can be managed to ensure the electricity network is operated within its technical limits.To achieve this, Evoenergy used Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxture ADMS, Schneider’s Electric DERMS, the Evoenergy IoT Hub and the Greensync deX system.This provides a pathway to integrate and manage DER assets into an existing energy network, which will enable Evoenergy and other network businesses to continue to plan, build, operate, and maintain networks in compliance with regulatory standards and ensure reliable and safe supply of electricity to customers.
