The software can generate granular load profiles. By analyzing these curves, energy managers can identify peak demand periods, shift non-critical loads to off-peak times, and validate the ROI of demand response strategies. The software often includes a "coincident demand" calculator, showing how an individual load contributes to the facility’s overall peak.
Elster continues to evolve the PMU software. Recent updates include pre-processing of voltage analytics to predict transformer failures and support for DER (Distributed Energy Resources) integration, allowing the PMU to monitor net-metered solar installations.
