AutoGrid Named Energy Productivity Innovation Challenge (EPIC) Winner - Seite 2
For example, with AutoGrid Flex, utilities and energy service providers can use DERs to account for the intermittency of renewable generation, allowing them to cost-effectively add more renewables into their energy system without impacting grid stability. In addition, AutoGrid Flex's advanced analytics and machine learning technologies deliver reliable, accurate, dispatch-grade demand response, making these programs more efficient while improving system reliability.
"The distributed energy world will require us to not just generate more power from renewable resources, but also use the Energy Internet to maximize the productivity of every energy asset we have if we want energy to be clean, cheap and reliable," said Dr. Amit Narayan, CEO of AutoGrid. "This recognition further validates our conviction that flexibility management is essential if utilities and energy service providers are to be successful in building renewable-friendly, flexible energy networks that maximize the productivity of any type of DER."
