SEEload™
Demand Response Management System
About Smart Grid Command and Control
Improve T&D Network Reliability
Utilities and system operators are increasingly turning to demand
response (DR) as a cost effective and environmentally responsible
way to serve peak load—and customers are increasingly looking
to DR programs to help manage energy costs. DR is clearly a
powerful tool for maintaining grid reliability and managing
wholesale market price spikes, but shedding more load than is
required for longer than necessary leads to lost utility revenue.
SEEload’s ability to implement precise load relief at the system,
substation or feeder level provides utilities with unprecedented
control of their distribution networks, while optimizing the grid,
economic and customer impacts of DR events. SEEload’s DR
program-driven control also helps utilities manage Distributed
Energy Resources such as plug-in electric vehicles when these
assets need to be managed via DR events.
Provide Precise DR Event Control
SEEload seamlessly integrates and supports all of a utility’s DR
programs, customers and aggregators to enable load shedding at
the system, substation or feeder level, allowing utilities to call
DR events that precisely match the size, location and duration
of their load shed requirements. Utilities can also fine-tune DR
events using SEEload’s recommended ‘Courses of Action’
generator, an automated decision engine that enables utilities to
optimize DR events based on multiple DR program parameters,
grid status, wholesale market prices and in-progress DR event
participation.
Dynamic & Flexible Control
• Easily manage all DR programs, customers & aggregators
• Precisely shed load at the system, substation or feeder level
• Seamlessly integrate renewables, PEVs and energy storage
• Constantly refine DR forecasts through powerful analytics
“Lockheed Martin has decades of experience in
real-time command and control, and now they’ve put
it to work on behalf of the electric power industry.
For the first time, the smart grid has the sophisticated
‘situational awareness’ it deserves.”
Jesse Berst, Founding Editor of Smart Grid News
Manage the Complete DR Lifecycle
SEEload provides utilities with a comprehensive and integrated
load management solution that includes a user-friendly customer
portal, customizable DR program management, flexible system
operator control, detailed forecasting, real-time reporting of
committed and available DR capacity and powerful DR
analytics. SEEload simplifies DR event management by tightly
integrating all of a utility’s DR programs, customers and
aggregators into a single operational view, enabling utilities to
maintain grid reliability, reduce DR event costs and minimize
customer impact.
