Eguana Technologies Inc. (TSXV: EGT) (“Eguana” or the “Company”), a leading provider of high-performance energy storage systems, is pleased to announce it is collaborating with Itron, a leading provider of grid edge monitoring and control solutions, to deliver advanced utility control functionality through a standards-based integration of its energy storage systems with Itron’s IntelliFLEX grid edge DERMS solution.
Through the collaboration, Eguana and Itron will jointly, and independently, market the combined solution to respective utility customers, with a focus on utilities that are interested in ramping up distributed energy storage procurement but prefer to use a grid edge dispatch and monitoring network that is already well established and integrated into their operations.
“Grid interactive battery energy storage is one of the most flexible assets we have available on the grid today,” said Don Reeves, senior vice president of Outcomes at Itron. “Through this collaboration with Eguana, we are demonstrating how to take advantage of IntelliFLEX, an advanced AMI-enabled grid edge DERMS, as a pathway toward local customer resource management and quantified distribution network value.”
“This integrated solution marks a major milestone for the industry” commented Eguana CEO Justin Holland. “No longer will residential energy storage systems be consigned to simply supplying backup power with the occasional optional dispatch for demand response. The integrated IntelliFLEX with Evolve opens the door to deploying energy storage assets as an essential contributor to grid capacity and infrastructure.”
