Modernizing and Optimizing How the Electricity Grid Is Managed
Smart Energy Enterprise Suite (SEEsuite™) is a series of computer-based grid management applications that provide utilities with the functionality and integration needed to transition to responsive smart grid-enabled organizations. SEEsuite helps utilities comply with changing regulatory requirements; reduce energy loads during times of grid stress or volatile wholesale prices; and maintain grid stability as new sources of energy generation, storage and consumption come online.
The Technology
The country’s current electric grid was built more than 100 years ago. While it has evolved over the years, a new approach to modernizing the electric grid is needed to manage the increasingly complex electricity needs of the 21st century. To help utility companies successfully transition to this new era, the SEEsuite of advanced grid management applications was launched in 2010.
SEEsuite is comprised of three different applications. The first, SEEload™ for Demand Response Management, provides utilities with a dynamic load management solution that integrates all of a utility’s demand response programs, customers and aggregators into a single operational view. The second application, SEEview™ for Enterprise Energy Management, allows customers to integrate multiple systems; bridge multiple geographies; and automate monitoring, reporting, and control of critical resources and loads into a single, easy-to-use screen. The final application, SEEgrid™ for Integrated Grid Management, allows utilities to optimize the use of distributed energy resources to improve grid reliability, meet energy source and emissions targets, and reduce the cost of delivered electricity.
The Benefits
- Increased efficiency: SEEsuite provides utilities with the information to dynamically manage loads during grid stress or volatile wholesale market prices, which allows them to increase efficiency while reducing costs.
- Improved environmental performance: The flexibility provided with SEEsuite helps utilities comply with changing regulatory requirements and allows them to consistently meet more stringent renewable energy and emissions targets.
