Manufacturer of automatic transfer switches and power control systems and solutions, Russelectric, has announced that it will be attending the Solar Power Northeast Annual Conference, to be held February 5th to 6th, 2019 in Boston, Massachusetts. Solar Power Northeast focuses on solar and energy storage industries regarding trends and legislation impacting grid resilience and reliability in the region.

Russelectric will showcase their Distributed Energy Controller (or RDEC) at booth 102.

The Russelectric Distributed Energy Controller integrates and optimises a facility’s onsite energy assets into a seamless microgrid: diesel generators, cogen, fuel cells, microturbines, solar PV, batteries, and critical and non-critical demands. At the core of each RDEC, Russelectric’s transfer switches, switchgear, and power controller provide physical, data, and control integration of a facility’s onsite demand and generation assets. At the upcoming Solar Power Northeast Conference, Russelectric will be operating an interactive kiosk to showcase RDEC for visitors to the Russelectric booth.

RDEC improves grid outage business continuity while reducing energy costs and carbon footprint. In addition, RDEC improves facility power quality, benefiting internal equipment and reducing utility power quality charges via dynamic islanding capabilities, fast and reliable decoupling, automatic black start of backup generators, seamless grid resynchronisation, and more.

Depending on power control needs, an optional SCADA and Electric Power Management System can be added. Russelectric can also provide storage systems or work with a user’s selected storage supplier.
