EMS

Energy management system

Run every site on its best energy plan.

See every meter, battery, inverter and charger on a site in one model, forecast load against the tariff, and test an optimization plan in shadow mode before it takes control.

Get Started

01 Overview

With Voltra you can see every meter, battery, inverter and charger on a site in one model, forecast load against the tariff, and test an optimization plan in shadow mode before it takes control.

Who runs it

  • Commercial buildings
  • Fleets & depots
  • Campuses
  • Retail & grocery

Used for

  • Demand-charge plans
  • Tariff scheduling
  • Solar self-consumption
  • EV load management
  • Battery dispatch
  • M&V reports

02 Architecture

The modular energy stack

EMS is one module on a stack you can extend.

Products on top, Fabric in the middle, devices and data sources at the edge. Every product runs on the same Fabric, so a second product works from the devices and site model the first one already connected.

  1. /products

  2. /fabric

    Voltra Fabric

    The same platform under every product

    • Connect

      Devices over nine protocols, through versioned device profiles.

    • Model

      Every device and system as one vendor-agnostic graph.

    • Configure

      Devices made to work together from the model.

    • Maintain

      Connections and the model kept current as firmware and sites change.

  3. /edge

    Devices and data sources

    Connected where they are, over the protocols and formats they already use.

    • OCPP
    • Modbus
    • IEEE 2030.5
    • BACnet/IP
    • MQTT
    • OpenADR

03 Features

EMS, feature by feature.

Real-time site model

Every meter, inverter, battery and charger in one live model, with its ratings and limits.

Load & tariff forecasts

Forecast site load and price it against the actual tariff, demand charges included.

Shadow-mode optimization

Run the optimizer beside live operations and compare its plan with what actually happened.

Limits you set

Site, feeder and device limits live in the model, so every plan respects them.

Grid program events

Enroll sites in demand response through OpenADR or IEEE 2030.5.

M&V reports

Measured-versus-baseline reports for each action the plan takes.

Native integrations with the hardware you already use.

Voltra talks to devices over the protocols they already speak, so you keep the equipment you have. Each vendor below is mapped to one device model, so a new site comes online without custom integration work.

  • Tesla
  • SMA
  • SolarEdge
  • Enphase
  • LG
  • Sungrow
  • Schneider Electric
  • Eaton
  • Generac
  • Itron
