Worried about being left in the cold?

Nobody likes surprises, especially when they involve critical components within your operation technology platform. But being forced to upgrade due to changes in supplier offerings has become too common in our industry. We don’t buy into that. Utilities need a flexible platform and partners who are committed to supporting current systems while planning for the next transition.

Balancing smart grid needs

Utilities work hard to find the right balance between the cost-effective operation of a stable system and empowered customers. That’s why Eaton provides Demand Response (DR) solutions that consistently and reliably deliver forecasted load reductions while allowing individual customers the control and flexibility they need to manage their enrolment preferences. Eaton’s secure and protected interface encourages greater participation and customer satisfaction with load management programmes, all while protecting customer privacy with our secure technology.

I’d recommend Eaton for their customer service and the fact that they offer a very good product.

Delivering value to both utilities and their customers

Eaton customers share their thoughts on working with Eaton’s DR and AMI solutions.

Powerful platform, simple to use

Yukon Demand Response Management software (DRMS) features DR management capability on a robust enterprise software platform supporting two-way load control switches and smart thermostat solutions. Optional modules support measurement & verification (M&V) data collection, Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Distribution Automation (DA) systems while open interface standards and specifications ensure seamless integration to future enterprise software applications.

Benefits of two-way communication

  • Improved estimation of the load reduction that will occur during a DR event
  • Reduce maintenance costs by servicing units with a known issue
  • Post-event verification of participation and load reduction 
  • Enhance and customise control strategy based on appliance runtime behaviour
