Join Us in Supporting the Grid of the Future

EPE is expanding its services in the smart grid sector, offering comprehensive advisory support to utilities on the challenges and opportunities of integrating Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). As DERs become more prevalent, utilities face increased complexity and must transition from a traditional, unidirectional electricity supply model to a sophisticated, decentralized system that is data-rich and prosumer-focused. This evolution is fueled by advancements in technology, including automation and control platforms like ADMS and DERMS, smart meters, smart inverters, and AI-driven data analytics.

This role at EPE encompasses a wide range of activities, from advising utilities on DER management and control strategies, assessing DSO readiness, facilitating DER market integration and more. This position goes beyond engineering; it involves leading transformative advancements and shaping the future of the utility landscape.
