Optimize Your Grid with the Right Size Voltage
Download our CVR solution brief for electric utilities.
Reliable power service is a top priority for you and your customers. So is a balanced and efficient system. Particularly during peak loads. By reducing strain on the grid and energy usage during peak events, you not only ensure adequate power generation—you can save money. That’s why we developed the Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) solution.
Our CVR solution uses metrology, communications and analytics to monitor and manage real-time voltage data. This gives you the ability to reduce and optimize voltage across the distribution lines from substations to homes and businesses. It also helps you measure and maintain right-size voltage. So you don’t have to rely on outside power sources for supplementary energy or pay substantial spot-market pricing.
How does Conservation Voltage Reduction work?
We place bellwether meters, such as the Sensus Stratus IQ™ electricity meter, on distribution feeders throughout the service territory. These meters measure voltage and send one minute average voltage data through the FlexNet® communication network. Our analytics software, Voltage Insight, receives the data every five minutes so you have granular visibility.
The result? You can precisely manage voltage to reduce load and generate significant savings.
