Opus One Solutions software utilized to optimize solar power combination right into SCE grid
- Opus One Solutions, a carrier of transactive as well as dispersed energy management software, announced a contract to deploy its GridOS Transactive Energy Management System (TEMS) for a demonstration at Southern California Edison (SCE), one of the largest electrical utilities in the United States.
This is the very first transactive energy software release of its kind at Southern California Edison as well as in the state of California. Opus One's GridOS TEMS application will be used for SCE's Electric Access System Enhancement (EASE) task, which is supported by the Department of Energy (DOE) Enabling Extreme Real-time Grid Integration of Solar Energy (ENERGISE) program. The ENERGISE program is led by the DOE's Solar Energy Technologies Office, which intends to enhance the price, integrity and also worth of solar modern technologies on the grid.
SCE will utilize GridOS TEMS to handle dispersed energy resources (DER) in its Camden substation location. With price signals, SCE will be able to communicate with and also enhance the dispatch of those sources. This will allow SCE to explore economical services for the grid via customer-owned DER, as well as potential new earnings streams for its clients.
Opus One's software facilitates the fostering of renewable resource by enabling consumers' assets to supply power services to the energy. The software integrates a market monitoring system with an individual interface to engage clients and also develop operating routines for distributed energy sources that can satisfy grid requirements. Learnings from this job might notify grid procedures to handle DER at scale and also aid SCE toward its vision of cleansing the electricity grid and reaching carbon nonpartisanship.
" Utilities require a method to successfully suit more clean, distributed power on their grids as the push for decarbonization of the industry increases," claimed Mark Hormann, VP of U.S. Sales at Opus One Solutions. "A market-based method, which brings time-varying rates to resources based on their area, assists accomplish these goals while opening brand-new income streams for utilities as well as their consumers."
