Cooper Power Systems is a leader in providing customers with the tools and technology to implement energy management strategies and deliver end-to-end solutions. Our proven and effective technology-based Demand Response solutions shift peak demand; ease electrical system constraint and save the utility and the customer energy. With our AMI solutions, we provide utilities the opportunity to expand their system to include more comprehensive demand response programs and build the infrastructure needed to measure, collect and analyze energy usage and systems data.
Demand Response (DR)
Today, much pressure is placed on our nation’s electrical grid because of increasing capacity constraints as well as growing energy demand. Many utilities are embracing Demand
Response (DR) programs to avoid purchasing additional energy at peak market rates, or making costly investments into new power plants. These programs benefit both the utilities and their customers as rate payers are given the tools to more efficiently manage their own electricity consumption.
In addition, DR programs can result in significant environmental benefits as well. System studies have shown that DR programs not only help in shifting energy consumption, but decrease overall energy usage, as well as carbon and other greenhouse gas emissions. For these reasons, state-wide energy efficiency resource standards encourage the use of DR solutions as an overall strategy to reduce energy consumption.
Numerous utilities across the United States have made large investments in load management systems. Cooper Power
Systems is supporting these existing systems with its Yukon software platform alongside its newest technologies—allowing utilities to migrate smoothly from older to new technology.
Our proven and effective technology-based Demand Response solutions shift peak demand, ease electrical system constraints, reduce the need to buy or build expensive generation, transmission, and distribution capacity, and can save the utility and the customer money. Our demand response solutions

displace the need for additional peaking capacity and reduce the likelihood for brownouts and rolling blackouts.
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)
AMI is often the gateway to the intelligent grid. It is the first solution many utilities implement in an effort to increase efficiency and improve customer service through all operations and systems.
Cooper Power Systems’ AMI solutions bridge the gap between the utility and the consumer, giving each the information they need to make intelligent energy management decisions. In addition, our AMI solutions provide system operators with real-time data to improve operating and asset management processes. With an AMI system and the Yukon Advanced Energy Services Platform, utilities have the backbone of their intelligent grid solutions.
Cooper Power Systems offers the industry’s fastest, most robust
Power Line Carrier (PLC) Advanced Metering Infrastructure solution. Cooper Power Systems’ AMI provides utilities the largest feature set, choice of meter manufacturers, industry leading support and unmatched flexibility to ensure the needs of all departments, from billing to engineering, are met. Our enterprise suite of software, Yukon, gives utilities the opportunity to combine AMR/AMI with Demand Response, Intelligent
Capacitor Control and Distribution Automation, all on one platform, all from one vendor. Our AMI has the unique advantage of providing utilities with the tools required for today combined with the flexibility to expand into future advanced functionality.
