UNPRECEDENTED VISIBILITY
GridPoint software provides utilities with insight and intelligence that accelerates adoption of renewable generation within the distribution system.
Our smart grid application aggregates information on renewable production and applies sophisticated forecasting analytics to create a more predictable generation resource. Deployed in tandem with our energy storage, smart charging and load management capabilities, utilities are able to seamlessly synchronize net end-use demand with real-time grid requirements.GridPoint’s renewable integration software offers:
Comprehensive Visibility – Broad, system-wide data-collection provides a comprehensive, near real-time view of renewable energy production. Support for multiple data integration points is fundamental to the software design. Information is collected through direct communication with renewable inverters, individual monitoring systems and via server-to-server integrations with residential and commercial monitoring solutions.
Aggregated Knowledge – Information is delivered for individual system production or aggregated based on grid topology providing feeder, substation or system-wide understanding of distributed generation. Performance data can be integrated into utility energy management and planning systems or viewed in our utility portal.
Sophisticated Forecasting – Advanced analytics and prediction algorithms use production history, topology, weather and other relevant inputs to deliver hour-ahead and day-ahead renewable generation forecasts.
Seamless Tracking – The software application easily tracks, verifies and reports renewable energy credits (RECs), supporting current and future incentive programs.
Compelling Customer Communication – A customizable widget for GridPoint’s consumer portal provides utility customers with information about the performance of their renewable production systems. Using graphs and visual displays, consumers can track both current and historic generation and receive alerts if performance degrades or is interrupted for any reason.
