Otta's take
Xav Kearney
CTO of Otta
Power grids are becoming increasingly complicated due to the increased usage of distributed energy resources (DER) in homes such as electric vehicles, home batteries, and thermostats. This complexity arises from the fragmented nature of DER providers and their lack of integration withmanagement systems, making it difficult for renewable energy and other advanced grid services to operate reliably.
EnergyHub provides a DER management system that facilitates the management DERs at scale, helping to provide the digital infrastructure for flexible electricity demand, voltage and frequency regulation and real-time analytics. It also provides end-to-end support for the acquisition, enrollment, and aggregation of customer-owned DERs.
Whilst the DER industry faces significant challenges in integrating into existing power grids, EnergyHub is providing the infrastructural and data flexibility required to future-proof the reliability of power networks. The company partners with major DER providers - Siemens, Nest and Tesla to name a few - and provides the technical support required for them to meet their long-term strategic goals and work towards a renewable future.
