- Siemens’ next generation grid management software, Gridscale X™ DER Insights, supports goal to achieve net-zero emissions in the US by 2050
- The software provides better visibility of behind the meter distributed energy resources (DERs) and their impact on the grid
- These insights are critical for better grid planning and asset health, and
ensuring the success of customer programs
- Gridscale X DER Insights is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio
Siemens has announced its latest Gridscale X software offering enabling distribution utilities
to gain better visibility and insights of distributed energy resources (DERs) behind the meter
to increase grid capacity. With the rising number of DERs, this causes operational
challenges for distribution networks not originally designed to operate with these resources.
Gaining insights into where they are and how DERs are operating is a critical first step in
addressing the problems and subsequently taking advantage of these resources for grid
optimization.
