Every day, management of the grid becomes more challenging. The distribution network is becoming progressively dynamic, complexity is increasing and the volume of data that utilities need to understand and integrate continues to grow.
While the grid system has become increasingly complex due to the integration of distributed energy resources and storage these challenges have created opportunities to rethink the world of power distribution management. When integrated into the distribution grid, smart meters, demand response, and distributed storage and generation – in combination with increased grid automation – are inundating utility systems with data that need to be intelligently managed and leveraged for effective distribution grid operation. At the same time, utilities are facing growing regulatory and customer pressure to maximize grid efficiency and provide reliable service at all times.
Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure™ ADMS (formerly known as Advanced Distribution Management System) provides the most comprehensive network management solution, including monitoring, analysis, control, optimization, planning, and training tools that all function on a common representation of the entire electric distribution network. By merging distribution management (DMS), outage management (OMS), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems into one secure, unified solution with more than 50 advanced functions, it can maximize the benefits possible from a growing foundation of intelligent grid devices, distributed renewable energy, advanced metering, and all things smart grid.
The SurvalentONE ADMS platform is a fully integrated supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), outage management system (OMS), and distribution management system (DMS) solution that runs on a single, easy-to-use graphical interface. Built from the ground up on a Windows-based platform that is scalable, secure, and open, it efficiently integrates, manages, and processes data from a broad array of sources. Because our solutions are easy to deploy, manage, scale, and use, they provide a low total cost of ownership.
