Interconnected distribution utilities
Bring DER on your network into your Control Room and manage the risks
The challengeWhat makes high DER penetration hard to manage
Distribution utilities face compounding operational pressures as DER volumes grow. These are the core pain points driving urgency.
DER growth creates voltage, thermal and hosting capacity challenges.
Regulators, system operators and customers expect more operational control.
Network augmentation is slow, costly and hard to scale, often causing connection queue challenges.
DER data is often delayed, expensive or trapped outside ADMS and SCADA workflows.
LV-connected solar, battery and EV assets remain largely invisible to operations.
Multi-vendor DER fleets make integration complex, demanding OT/IT transition.
SwitchDin SolutionConnect, control and coordinate DER assets across portfolios
SwitchDin helps interconnected DSOs turn DER invisibility into operational control through a secure, standards-based communications and integration layer connecting multi-vendor solar, BESS, EV and dynamic load with existing DERMS, ADMS and SCADA workflows for real-time visibility, active control and network coordination.
