Trimark announces realtime Operation Control Center for utility-scale renewable energy assets. FOLSOM, Calif. - Trimark Associates has announced the opening of an Operation Control Center (OCC) in Austin, Texas, to provide 24/7/365, realtime, NERC-compliant services that are required to operate utility-scale solar, battery energy storage, and other power resources. Operating 24/7/365, the OCC is staffed with operators who respond to critical alarms, execute dispatch directives, and manage operations for electric power resources. These efforts provide a critical failsafe that supports grid stability and ensures regulatory, regional, and contractual compliance. "The Operational Control Center exists for two reasons: to protect the grid and to safely operate generation resources on behalf of the owner in accordance with regulatory requirements," said Dean Fagan, Vice President of Realtime Operations. "Trimark's OCC is staffed around the clock by trained operators who monitor and control utility-scale renewable energy resources. That provides owners with confidence that their resources comply with regulatory imperatives from energization through ongoing operations." The OCC provides owners with confidence that their resources comply with regulatory imperatives from energization through ongoing operations. - Dean Fagan An experienced OCC leader, Fagan brings extensive experience in every aspect of OCC operations. Trimark is leveraging his experience in OCC-related system architecture, staffing, processes, security, training, and compliance. From the start, Trimark's OCC is staffed by experienced, certified team members with practical experience in operations and control systems, security, network, and SCADA engineering resources. "Launching our Operational Control Center is a significant step forward for Trimark's long-term growth strategy," explained Robert Hinchman, Trimark's President and Chief Commercial Officer. "As the renewable energy sector continues to mature, resource owners need partners they can trust to support complex operational and compliance requirements. The OCC is a natural extension of Trimark's deep expertise in SCADA, compliance, and operations, allowing us to deliver comprehensive solutions for critical infrastructure." "Resource owners need peace of mind that their resources meet a range of compliance obligations," added Tom Short, Chief Operations Support Officer. "Trimark's OCC services reduce the cost, risk and complexity of self-performing mission-critical functions. We built our OCC on a foundation of experienced operators, proven SCADA expertise, and a comprehensive compliance." Trimark's OCC services reduce the cost, risk and complexity. - Tom Short Trimark's OCC is initially qualified to operate as a NERC, low-impact center. Accordingly, it is staffed by certified operators and supervisors who respond to control action requests, alarms, and directives within strict time frames. The OCC supports real-time monitoring, alarm and event management, remote command execution, outage coordination, operational reporting and communications. The OCC complements the Trimark Operations Center (TOC), a separate Trimark organization focused on root-cause analysis and mitigation.
