The health of a distribution grid is maintained by a distribution management system (DMS). Before the rise of distributed energy resource (DER), the DMS primarily managed the unidirectional power flow through the distribution grid from external sources (e.g. power brought from a large generating plant to the distribution grid by a transmission grid). Now, a typical DMS will utilize distributed energy resource manage systems (DERMS) to account for DER such as rooftop solar, community solar, and wind turbines. Each DERMS is responsible for an area of the distribution grid, issuing commands to the associated real-time automation controller (RTAC) to regulate power flow and maintain health of that section of the grid.
