GRID EDGE TECHNOLOGIES
Grid edge technologies are getting more sophisticated. From sensors that detect outages all along the distribution network to smart features that can lower customer bills and assist with demand management, grid operators now have a slew of tools at their fingertips that can help them reduce load or explore non-wires alternatives to major grid upgrades. Plus, newer technologies like solar PV, batteries, and EV chargers are coming equipped with smart sensors that also add more intelligence to the ever-expanding grid edge.
