The company said that the IntelliTeam VV system offers a cost-effective approach for optimizing electrical distribution system voltage, power factor and other grid operating characteristics based on real-time conditions.

This technology is scalable for deployments of all sizes and also offers demand response load reduction that does not impact the consumer.

S&C VP of strategic solutions Mike Edmonds said S&C is addressing demands placed on utilities to improve smart grid efficiency head-on with this product, which is part of the company’s Layered Intelligence solution set.

The company has also introduced accompanying services including analytical studies, engineer-procure-construct solutions, and asset management.

These services span the life of a volt-var optimization program, from initial project planning to definition to implementation, S&C said.
