GridEdge '25 Tutorial: DERMS+VPP with Dynamic Electricity Rates

The Automated Distributed Energy Resource Management System (DERMS) represents a groundbreaking advancement in grid management. By integrating demand response (DR) optimization into the DERMS engine’s objective function, the Automated DERMS enables efficient management of registered behind-the-meter (BTM) assets. These assets are pivotal in enhancing grid reliability, resiliency, and affordability. This tutorial will explore its integration with the CalFUSE pilot project, focusing on managing registered behind-the-meter (BTM) assets for optimal DR programs. This tutorial aims to equip participants with the knowledge and practical skills to leverage Automated DERMS effectively.
