Identify and alleviate grid constraints, autonomously.
Your central control systems do not have the visibility needed to effectively manage the secondary network.
So you operate based on estimates.
Real-time monitoring typically stops at the substation. Constraints occur lower down.
Constraints appear, move and change size with switching, weather, EV charging and new loads.
Records drift with new connections, unrecorded switching and phase changes.
What we're building
The right resources, behind the right asset, at the moment the constraint occurs.
A device on the asset measures capacity and thermal loading directly: which asset is constrained, and by how much, as it happens.
Constraint signals travel over the wires, so whatever hears them sits behind that asset. The map updates when the network is switched.
Devices behind the constraint act on their own, without waiting for a forecast or dispatch instruction. Everything else carries on.
What it opens up
Defer or right-size upgrades. Flexible resources behind a constrained asset shave its local peak, so the upgrade can wait.
Connect more, sooner. Offer flexible interconnection to new load and generation, using the headroom you already have.
Target investment where it matters. Use verified topology and loading data to improve planning and prioritise upgrades.
Talk to us
We're looking for a small number of distribution utilities to shape this on their own networks. Especially if a large load wants to connect and the upgrade is years away, or solar and EV connections are blocked on a full feeder.
