Keynote: Transforming the Distribution Power Grid Using Distributed Control and Analytics
Track/Summit: Energy Technology Summit
Session ID#: TS1528
Abstract: Discover how LocalGrid Technologies uses the new CompactRIO controller, based on heterogeneous FPGA technology, to build a MicroGrid network platform so power providers can cost-effectively deploy modular and standards-based MicroGrid solutions. LocalGrid's solution enables seamless, secure high-resolution analytics and control of distributed generation resources and grid assets to monitor feeder networks, dispatch generation, optimize distribution assets, or manage a MicroGrid network. LocalGrid software uses military-grade communications and a cross-platform embedded database to create a scalable, inherently redundant, and secure network platform.
