Cloud-based DER coordination and EV charging
Kitu Systems provides software that coordinates distributed energy resources (DERs) like solar, batteries, and EVs through its Grid Action Platform (GAP). The platform collects data from edge devices (Spark), connects to utilities and energy market operators via a utility-scale server (Citadel) and a cloud-based aggregation layer (Convoy), and includes EV charging management (Expedition CMS). It uses open standards such as IEEE 2030.5, OCPP, and ISO 15118 to enable vehicle-to-grid, demand response, and dynamic pricing, while emphasizing security (SOC 2 Type 2) and patented approaches for shared control of DERs. The goal is to provide a scalable, reliable communication and software infrastructure that coordinates behind-the-meter resources and smart charging to optimize grid operations and support new energy services, setting it apart through interoperability and cloud-edge integration.
