Distribution Management System (ADMS) is a comprehensive software platform used by utilities to manage and optimize the distribution of electricity. It integrates various functions to improve operational efficiency, reliability, and visibility across the power grid. ADMS helps utilities manage outages, enhance grid stability, and support the integration of renewable energy sources by providing real-time monitoring, analysis, and control capabilities.
Applications under ADMS:
Outage Management System (OMS)
Detects, manages, and resolves power outages by tracking the location and extent of outages, dispatching crews, and providing real-time updates to operators and customers.
Energy Management System (EMS):
Optimizes the flow of electricity within the distribution grid by balancing supply and demand, minimizing energy losses, and improving overall grid efficiency.
Distribution Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (D-SCADA):
Provides real-time monitoring and control of distribution assets, enabling utilities to track grid performance, identify issues, and control equipment remotely.
Fault Location, Isolation, and Service Restoration (FLISR):
Automates the process of detecting faults, isolating faulted sections, and restoring power to unaffected areas, minimizing outage duration and impact.
Volt/VAR Optimization (VVO)
Controls voltage and reactive power on the grid to improve power quality, reduce energy losses, and ensure efficient operation.
Demand Response (DR)
Enables utilities to manage and shift electricity demand during peak times, improving grid stability and avoiding overloading.
Distributed Energy Resource Management System (DERMS)
Integrates and manages distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar, wind, and battery storage, ensuring smooth operation and optimal performance.
These applications work together to enhance grid performance, improve service reliability, and support the transition to a more sustainable energy system.
