California, along with many other states, has made great strides in recent years to define a solution that mitigates the problems associated with increased penetration of rooftop solar.  This has culminated in the Rule 21 decision by the California Public Utility Commission requiring smart inverters to be managed by Utilities or DER Operator/Aggregator to maintain grid reliability.

"The Kitu Energy Platform is immediately available for both Utilities and Aggregators," says Mike Bourton Vice President of Business Development, "and provides the necessary tools to implement the required IEEE 2030.5 Common California Investor Owned Utility (IOU) Rule 21 Implementation Guide for Smart Inverters that is being released by the CA utilities."

Kitu also provides the software building blocks for the most complete end to end solution for Gateways and Smart Inverter vendors, which can dramatically reduce the time of development with proven Interoperability and conformance.

Kitu will be showing its complete range of DER products for Rule 21 at Distributed Energy Resources Management with IEEE 2030.5™ Symposium & Exhibition on November 1st 2016 in Irwindale California.
