Brad Harkavy (VP of Product at Oracle Energy & Water) speaks with Ravi and JAM about the challenges and opportunities in managing DER systems.

Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) play a key role in the energy transition by decentralizing power generation, integrating renewable sources, and improving grid efficiency by reducing transmission losses. They enhance energy resilience through diverse supply sources and enable consumer participation in energy markets, accelerating the shift to a low-carbon economy. A DER Management System (DERMS) can turn DER intermittency into a dispatchable grid resource that supports reliability and efficiency goals.
