Distributed Energy Resources (DERs)

Powering communities through the energy transition

Distributed energy resources (DERs) encompass a variety of power generation methods and technology—at a smaller, modular scale—that are connected to a larger power distribution grid. With the advancing energy transition, communities can look forward to increasingly distributed power generation across the grid, throughout industries. Our ability to support and develop DERs across markets will help you prepare for a challenging future, no matter the project.

DERs could be solar, battery storage, microgrids, wind, diesel, natural gas, hydropower, or others, and they provide alternative and diversified energy sources, or supplement traditional systems, and allow owners to diversify and restructure power grids.

Our DERs management services encompass preliminary research and charter development to system planning, distributed energy resources management (DERMS), and pilot execution.

Whether your grid needs to be upgraded to meet sustainability goals or your infrastructure needs added resilience, our DERs team can help you deliver the projects that keep your communities running.
