Telvent Unveils the Most Advanced Distribution Management System
in the Industry
New Smart Grid solution provides network reliability, environmental sustainability
while enhancing customer choice
March 23, 2010 – Telvent (NASDAQ: TLVT), the IT company for a sustainable and secure
world, announced today the launch of its new Distribution Management System (DMS), the
most advanced network operations and planning tool on the market. As utilities mobilize to meet
increasing customer demand and environmental obligations, Telvent DMS provides a wide
range of real-time and simulation mode functions for optimal operational and financial
performance.
Telvent DMS is a critical element of Telvent’s Smart Operations Suite, which includes powerful,
open and integrated systems for mission-critical implementation. Specifically, Telvent DMS
enables utilities to more quickly identify faults, isolate them and achieve restoration, resulting in
cost-savings and enhanced revenues. Telvent DMS provides customers with real-time data and
options regarding energy delivery.
In addition, Telvent DMS enables distribution system demand response (DSDR) as a key
approach to the reduction of peak power and the addition of fast responding spinning reserve.
Through tightening down volt/VAR control, including flattening the voltage profile along many
feeders, some utilities have been able to use DSDR to anticipate peak demand reductions of 5
to 7 percent.
“The distribution network is where a majority of utilities can achieve the greatest initial ROI in
grid optimization,” said Manuel Sanchez, Telvent Chairman and CEO. “With Telvent DMS,
utilities are able to promote new rate options and plans that are best suited for each customer,
while also turning their information into real-time business intelligence that drives smarter
decisions across the entire enterprise.”
Telvent DMS will be on display at DistribuTECH 2010 Conference and Exhibition on March 2325, 2010 in Tampa, Fla. Visit booth #1502 to see a demonstration and talk with Telvent
representatives about other Telvent Smart Grid innovations and opportunities.
