Harness DERs to enhance grid operations
AutoGrid DERMS is the industry’s most comprehensive distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) application, connecting to and managing all types of distributed energy resources (DERs). Tap into smart inverters, storage, combined heat and power units (CHPs) and other distributed generation resources to improve grid reliability, ensure power quality, and enable ancillary services.
All DERs. All assets. Multiple protocols. One platform.
DERs pose a threat to traditional distribution system operating models – and, by extension, to system reliability. What’s more, DERs vary by type, manufacturer and communication protocols, creating a hairball of complexity.
AutoGrid DERMS delivers comprehensive, vendor-neutral DER support, connecting to and managing all DERs, including third-party solar and storage aggregates, from one platform. With AutoGrid DERMS, threat becomes opportunity.
- Avoid vendor lock-in
- Integrate new DERs as needed
- Add operational flexibility
- Ensure regulatory compliance

Targeted dispatch when, where and how it’s needed—at scale
The surge of DERs at the grid edge can disrupt local power quality, reverse system flows or skew voltage regulation. AutoGrid DERMS solves these issues with targeted, surgical dispatch at the substation, feeder or transformer level based on local grid conditions. You also get unprecedented horizontal scalability from AutoGrid’s state-of-the-art big data architecture , so you can support large numbers of DERs, control-configurations and granular system condition data in real time.
Get to market faster
It can be hard to sell ancillary services from DERs to upstream markets. Not so with AutoGrid DERMS. With easy configuration to meet your specific requirements and a SaaS-based architecture, AutoGrid DERMS can be deployed and operational in just one to three months.
