The rapid growth of solar and wind power, battery storage, and electric vehicles has created an unprecedented challenge to grid stability. As these distributed energy resources (DERs) connect to the network at an accelerating pace, utilities require advanced tools to maintain reliability. Selecting and implementing a distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) is a complex undertaking, but one that is invaluable to transform grid complexity into strategic advantage. 1898 & Co. guides utilities through every stage of their DERMS journey to see that solutions align technology, people and processes, building a more resilient, efficient and clean energy future.
