Lumena Energy

Connected devices

Connect your assets.
Coordinate their response.

Your energy equipment has a bigger role to play. Lumena Energy’s AIoT controllers connect generation, storage and flexible loads with Parsecc DERMS, giving your team the information and control needed to coordinate them as a Virtual Power Plant.

Discuss your connected assets

Make the connection count

Turn individual assets into a coordinated network.

A battery can store energy. Solar can generate it. Flexible equipment can adjust when it consumes it. Connecting these resources allows your team to coordinate their capabilities around the needs of your site and the wider network.

See what’s happening. Act with purpose.

Bring equipment status and operating information into Parsecc DERMS. Send instructions back through our AIoT controllers, with equipment limits and site priorities guiding each response.

Build on the equipment you already own.

Start with your existing assets. We assess their interfaces and control capabilities to identify how compatible equipment can participate, then establish the connections and operating boundaries your project needs.

Connect today. Plan for what comes next.

A connected energy strategy gives each asset a defined role while supporting the addition of compatible generation, storage and flexible loads as your needs grow.

Two-way communication

Information in. Instructions out.

The controller connects equipment in the field with the software coordinating the network.

Energy assets send operating data and status through the AIoT controller to Parsecc DERMS. Control instructions travel back through the controller to the assets.
Communication flow. These links represent data and instructions, not electrical power flow.

From individual equipment to a connected VPP.

Identify the equipment.

Start with the assets you want to connect.

Review generation, batteries and controllable loads alongside their existing interfaces and site requirements. This establishes where an AIoT controller fits into the system.

Connect the controller.

Give supported equipment a connection to the operating network.

Our AIoT controller links compatible energy equipment with Parsecc DERMS. The connection is configured around the equipment and the role it will play at the site.

Bring operating data online.

Send equipment readings and status updates to Parsecc DERMS.

Operating information helps your team understand what connected assets are doing. AIoT combines artificial intelligence with the Internet of Things: connected devices that exchange information to support monitoring and coordinated decisions.

Establish operating boundaries.

Define what each connected asset is allowed to do.

Configure equipment limits, permissions and site requirements before enabling coordinated control. These settings give the operating plan a clear boundary around the needs of each asset and participant.

Coordinate the response.

Turn the operating plan into instructions for connected equipment.

Parsecc, our Distributed Energy Resource Management System, coordinates participating resources. Our AIoT controllers provide the communication link for operating instructions and equipment updates.

Monitor and maintain.

Keep the connection useful throughout the life of the system.

Review equipment status and responses, and identify issues that need attention. Monitoring and maintenance keep the connected system aligned with the site’s operating needs.

What does AIoT mean?

AIoT brings together artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things refers to connected physical devices that exchange data. In our VPP approach, controllers connect energy equipment with Parsecc DERMS so operating information can inform coordinated decisions.

Can existing equipment connect?

We begin by reviewing the equipment, its communication interfaces and the control functions available. This identifies how compatible assets can join the network and what configuration the site needs.

What happens if communications are interrupted?

The connection plan addresses communication interruptions, local equipment behavior and the steps for restoring coordination. These requirements are established for the equipment and site before coordinated operation begins.

How is access controlled?

Permissions and operating boundaries define who can access the system and which actions connected equipment is allowed to take. Access requirements are addressed alongside equipment settings and site responsibilities during configuration.
