Secure Interoperable Open Smart Grid Demonstration Project - Final Technical Report Appendices
Nov. 30, 2014
The Con Edison DERMS project, sponsored by the United States Department of Energy (DOE), integrates multiple sources of operations and logistical information to visualize delivery grid condition and manage available Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), both demand and generation, to enable energy delivery reliability and security.
The project leverages Siemens expertise in Utility Real-Time Operations domains and information technology (IT) in tandem with TIBCOs service-oriented middleware architecture to bridge functional silos, collecting data from heterogeneous applications and establishing secure, reliable communication connections between them. Siemens platform additionally enables Con Edison users to visualize and monitor integrated data from a range of sources and take informed actions. Internal users of SGDP do not require installation of client as the system is enabled with Microsoft virtual application (Microsoft App-V) and can be used and run by any workstation that was authorized to run the DERMS virtual application.
