Problem
The increasing deployment of distributed energy resources (DERs) like solar, batteries, and EVs creates fragmented data silos, hindering efficient grid management and optimization. Lack of standardized data sharing and communication protocols between diverse DER systems limits the ability to leverage their collective potential for grid services and customer engagement.
Solution
Texture provides a cloud-based industry platform designed to aggregate, standardize, and analyze data from distributed energy devices, markets, and customers. The platform offers REST APIs and real-time webhooks for seamless integration with existing systems, eliminating data silos and enabling AI-driven insights. By connecting data from various DER assets, Texture facilitates improved grid services enablement, enhanced customer relationship management, and optimized network monitoring and analytics. This allows energy companies to unlock new opportunities, optimize performance, and foster stronger relationships with their customers.
Target Audience
Texture targets energy companies, virtual power plant operators, installers, and other stakeholders seeking to optimize the performance of distributed energy networks and improve customer engagement.
