Grid-Edge DERMS suite
Boost Your DER Strategy With a DERMS Built for Modern Utilities
Virtual Peaker’s Shift Grid-Edge DERMS suite manages residential electric demand. It applies machine learning and real-time control to internet-enabled appliances to reduce demand while minimizing the negative impact on the residential customer. Shift connects in-home smart devices to run residential demand response programs that leverage distributed energy resources (DERs) to reduce cost and peak load.
