4. GRID DERMS Management Tool:

There are five different DER type representations:

1. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)

2. Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE)

3. Solar

4. Wind

5. Default (for DERs that do not fall into any of the above categories)

The left section of the DER Details varies based on the type of DER selected; the right section contains a table, which is common for all DER types.

• The SCADA Keys and SCADA Values section is visible if the DER has SCADA.

• The Settings section depends on the DER type selected.

• Regulation Parameters depends on the DER type. Attributes may be edited unless they have SCADA links, which are read only.

• The Optimization panel has same options for all the DER types.
