Simplify grid operations & planning with AI-powered orchestration
Camus unifies and analyzes disparate data sources, leveraging AI and hyperscale computing to deliver real-time insights, actionable forecasts and grid-optimized DER management.
Camus bridges three key gaps in managing DER impacts
1. Bring grid-wide visibility to the control room
2. Easily coordinate across DERMS vendors and DER aggregators
3. Simulate future operations using real-world data
Protect service transformers and avoid unexpected outages by monitoring aggregated loads on upline equipment, including historical, near real-time, and forecasted loading.
Identify up to 80% of Level-2 electric vehicle charging locations with machine learning-backed analysis of meter data.
Mitigate voltage deviations and avoid damage to utility equipment by monitoring and forecasting load and voltage for each feeder.
Predict day-ahead net load at every meter, inclusive of distributed generation and DER impacts. Complement with Camus’ behind-the-meter solar generation forecasts to estimate gross load.
Maximize power supply savings by improving peak management and local energy procurement strategies with a highly-accurate, 5-day ahead forecast for coincident peak periods.
View aggregated load forecasts for any point on the grid, including transformers, reclosers, feeders, and substations. Anticipate and mitigate abnormal conditions, including backflow and overloading.
Shift electricity consumption from electric vehicles, batteries, and flexible building loads to reduce peak demand and lower operating costs.
Protect distribution infrastructure and avoid premature replacement by incorporating upline equipment’s operating constraints into DER dispatch algorithms.
Ensure third-party-controlled aggregations of DERs respect distribution-level constraints while participating in wholesale markets via dynamic operating envelopes.
Dispatch utility-managed batteries to shift loads, soak up excess solar, or mitigate voltage deviations via common control interfaces such as DMP3, Modbus, and RTACs.
Monitor the effectiveness of your DER management by comparing dispatch instructions and real-world behavior of individual and aggregated DERs.
Estimate how DER adoption scenarios, including electric vehicle charging, will impact utility equipment with data-driven power flow simulations.
Provide device aggregators and fleet coordinators with operating constraints that change based on real-time and forecasted grid conditions. Accelerate interconnections without sacrificing reliability.
Identify heavily-burdened distribution infrastructure and prioritize upgrades based on likelihood of failure and ability to avoid overloading or backfeed via DER control.
Analyze upgrade plans based on forecasts of future demand to create data-backed estimates of savings from deferred equipment upgrades.
Proven technology from experts in scale
Our team developed Google's approach to reliable distributed computing and operated the internet giant's high-reliability global computing platform. Today, Camus handles massive volumes of utility data using the same approach that our team pioneered to operate critical systems at 99.999% uptime.
An interoperable ecosystem of partners
Camus is interoperable with leading DERMS providers, DER aggregators, and grid technology partners. This enables a cross-cutting data foundation and scalable integrations that allow you to engage trusted partners to orchestrate your grid.
Cross-silo data analysis by category-leading AI
Camus unifies and analyzes data from customers, utilities, DERs, and third parties, harnessing best-in-class AI and machine learning to address today’s challenges.
From addressing delays in AMI data collection to accelerating the convergence of power flow models, AI-derived insights can transform how utilities view and manage their grid.
End-to-end protection for your infrastructure
Our zero-trust cybersecurity model authenticates each user or subsystem through multi-channel mechanisms and provides explicit access to only a limited set of systems.
This end-to-end security approach protects your infrastructure better than relying upon a firewall or VPN, both of which focus solely on keeping bad actors out while leaving internal services exposed to those inside the security boundary.
