Distributed Energy Resource Management Systems (DERMS) are quickly gaining adoption as an indispensable tool for managing the large influx of distributed energy resources (DERs). The ability to optimize and orchestrate huge numbers of DERs is essential to integrate large amounts of intermittent renewable generation while also ensuring grid reliability.

Watch this replay of experts from the Public Service of New Mexico (PNM) as they share experiences using DERMS at the transmission level to achieve a range of objectives, including market participation in California ISO with 150- and 20-megawatt energy storage systems paired with solar generation. Learn how PNM leverages our Integra DERMS solution to:

• Protect transformers at point of interconnection and avoid frequency violations
• Deliver backup power when needed and optimize battery charging using solar
• Create a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) to support California ISO, including at times when prices are high
• Integrate with an enterprise Operational Technology (OT) solution as well as PNM’s generation and transmission management solutions
• Deliver continuous battery optimization based on current market and weather forecasting data

In addition, you’ll hear about PNM’s plans to use DERMS as an enterprise solution to manage a growing portfolio of energy storage assets.
