Curtailment Dashboard

A public accessible dashboard giving transparency on all curtailment activities taken on our Distributed Energy Resource Management system. There is also a private view available to generators subject to curtailment that can access their site specific information as well as world first curtailment forecast service via API.

Key deliverables

Dashboard on the Open Data Portal showing live curtailment status, historical curtailment activities and forecasted curtailment

Target outcomes

Generators get immediate knowledge of curtailment. -Full transparency of the when and why of curtailment. This has helped customers resolve their onsite issues to reduce curtailment
For market driven generators such as batteries, the curtailment forecast allows more confident market positioning for improved revenue. Additionally, for those generators that are not rapidly curtailable, such as biogas fuelled turbines, avoiding periods of high likelihood curtailment prevents damage to equipment
