Like all OATI tools, OATI DERMS is hosted on the OATI Cloud, a key driver for organizations responsible for critical infrastructure and services, featuring NERC/CIP-compliant data centers. The platform can control both DR and DER assets and programs under a “single pane of glass,” such as commercial load, behind-the-meter and front-of-the-meter battery energy storage, microgrids, smart thermostats, and managed electric vehicle charging.
OATI DERMS: Trusted by co-ops
While the versatility of DERMS has made it the utility industry’s most coveted tool in recent years, not all platforms are created equal. OATI developed DERMS that works by collaborating directly with utilities over the past 16 years to develop a solution grounded by power systems engineering. To date, more than 225 investor-owned utilities, generation and transmission cooperatives, distribution cooperatives, and municipalities leverage OATI DERMS.
OATI now provides its DERMS solution to more G&Ts and their member distribution cooperatives than any other provider.
The list of cooperatives using OATI DERMS now includes G&T’s such as East Kentucky Power Cooperative (16 co-ops), North Carolina Electric Membership Corporation (26 co-ops), PowerSouth Energy Cooperative (10 co-ops), Dairyland Power Cooperative (25 co-ops), East River Electric Power Cooperative (25 co-ops), Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association (39 co-ops), Southern Illinois Power Cooperative (7 member distribution cooperatives and a municipal utility), and Hoosier Energy (17 cooperatives).
Most recently, Georgia System Operations Corporation (GSOC) began its DERMS journey with OATI DERMS. GSOC manages and monitors the electric generation and transmission for 38 of Georgia’s electric membership corporations, covering two-thirds of the state of Georgia and delivering affordable power for more than 4 million Georgians — every day, every hour.
