Evaluate Program Participation

Distributed Energy Resource Management (DERM) programs allow commercial and industrial users to participate in utility-managed initiatives that support grid reliability, flexibility, and operational efficiency.

The i3 Energy Architecture framework provides a structured way to evaluate DERM participation based on your location, operating profile, and utility context. This step helps identify applicable programs and estimate potential value—without requiring commitment.

The i3 Energy Architecture Framework establishes the foundation for a DERM.

By unifying infrastructure data, operational telemetry, and system intelligence into a single environment, i3 transforms fragmented assets into actionable operational insight.

i3 enables DERM by:

Aggregating facility, infrastructure, and DER data

Normalizing real-time telemetry across systems

Providing geographic and operational context

Supporting system-level awareness across portfolios

Preparing assets for future DERMS integration
