Empowering Proactive Grid Management
The Capacity Module—one of several selected by PiteEnergi—enables the detection of capacity constraints, asset condition, and the impact of different changes on the grid. This provides the utility with the ability to conduct advanced analyses and monitor the status and quality of the low-voltage network.
As the use of battery storage and solar technology increases, these developments are playing a growing role in affecting both grid structure and supply quality. With the Production Module, PiteEnergi will gain a complete overview of their generation assets along with related analytics.
“It’s inspiring to work with the team at PiteEnergi and support their proactive efforts to become more data-driven,” says Peter Larson Bratt, Account Executive at Embriq.
“We’re proud to welcome PiteEnergi into the growing number of grid companies using the Quant Insight analytics and decision-support system,” adds Carl Norelid, CEO of Embriq AB. “At Embriq, we aim to support these companies through the ongoing transformation of the energy sector.”
