128 - Orchestrating Zero Carbon Distribution Grids with Software and Data

What is the biggest hurdle that utilities face when working with Distributed Eeergy Resources (DERs), and how to make electric grids transparent and aware? We discuss the answer to these and more with Astrid Atkinson, CEO and Co-Founder at Camus Energy, a firm committed to using software for empowering a zero-carbon grid. Focusing on a diverse range of topics from power reliability to network connectivity, we learn about how using cloud scale computing tools to handle utility scale network management can help orchestrate and automate distribution grids powered by fleets of decentralized energy assets.
