Wastewater treatment is energy and cost intensive. Demand charges on electricity bills often account for a large share of electricity costs, creating strong incentives for shifting load peaks away from time-of-use periods.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a cloud-based behind-the-meter (BTM) system that can cut energy costs and reduce reliance on the grid close to 93% respectively.
Stanford researchers have developed a low-cost, efficient, and reliable market platform system to monetize underutilized distribution system assets called Automatic Power Exchange (APEX).
Stanford researchers have developed an architecture and control scheme for the coordination of distributed energy resources (DER), such as solar and storage, to minimize operation cost, enhance network reliability, and provide DER aggregation.
