PROBLEMS WE SOLVEGrid reliability
The grid is expected to evolve more in the next 10 years than in the last 100. How are you addressing reliability?
The challenge Rising grid demands
The grid is undergoing seismic change. Aging infrastructure needing costly upgrades. Soaring demand for capacity from data centers, electric vehicles (EV), and electric heating. Integration of renewables and DERs at the grid edge are reshaping the net load curve in some regions.
The magnitude of these edge loads (both positive and negative) is increasing, adding complexity to grid management—and, unaddressed, may harm grid reliability.
How can you make the right investments today to ensure power flows tomorrow?
By bridging the interface between the grid edge and the bulk power system, “smart” loads capable of being coordinated and controlled—and capable of providing additional options (assets) and flexibility to grid operators—can help solve the challenge.
