Planning Beyond the Peak: Finding the Right Mix of Flexibility and Investment

📅 Tuesday, October 20 | 4:15 PM - 5:30 PM MST

📍 Media Center

The pace and complexity of change in the distribution grid are challenging traditional approaches to system planning. As load growth drives the need for major grid investment, utilities face increasing pressure to protect affordability and minimize ratepayer impact. Strategic Grid Planner addresses this exact challenge, algorithmically evaluating thousands of feasible alternatives across future scenarios and operating conditions.

Combining time-series analysis, optimization algorithms, and physics-based power flow solvers, Strategic Grid Planner enables utilities to look beyond a limited set of peak conditions and predefined mitigation measures. Planners can evaluate requirements across the full year, quantify where and when flexibility can address constraints, along with traditional reinforcement, as part of coordinated, multi-year grid development plans.

This moves distribution grid planning toward grid optimization, providing a data-driven, defensible basis for investment decisions. Utilities can identify more targeted solutions, make better use of existing infrastructure, and focus investment where grid upgrades deliver the greatest value.

Why meet with envelio?

As electrification, DER adoption, and load growth increase demands on distribution systems, utilities need to accommodate growth while managing costs for both the utility and its customers. The IGP helps utilities maximize the value of existing grid assets, evaluate future needs with greater confidence, and target investments where they deliver the greatest value.

The IGP enables utilities to:

Understand how feeders, substations, transformers, switches, and local assets perform under current and future load scenarios
Streamline and automate interconnection workflows
Improve data quality across planning and operations
Reduce engineering workloads and operational costs
Evaluate planning scenarios to support more targeted, cost-effective infrastructure investments

Trusted by more than 100 utilities worldwide, the IGP supports data consistency, transparency, and faster decision-making across the distribution network – all within one integrated platform.

How the IGP supports distribution utilities:

Interconnection studies – automate screening and impact analysis to reduce backlog and shorten review cycles.
Hosting capacity maps – go beyond static snapshots with time-series and seasonal hosting capacity to reflect real operating conditions, enable accurate self-service screenings, and inform flexibility assessment.
Network model management – connect existing data sources and maintain synchronized, validated network models for analysis and reporting.
Planning and scenario analysis – simulate future grid states, test options for grid upgrades, and support investment decisions with consistent data.
