Introducing SurvalentONE Helix
Bringing enhanced operational capabilities and deeper insights for utilities.
Survalent, a trusted name in advanced operational technology for utilities, is revolutionizing how grid operations are managed. As the complexity of energy distribution increases, so does the amount of operational data utilities face. In light of this, Survalent continues to advance its SurvalentONE platform, most recently by launching Helix, a Time-Series Historian that provides utilities with unprecedented visibility into operational history.
Enhancing System Self-Awareness
SurvalentONE Helix plays a pivotal role in allowing utilities to manage extensive operational data effectively. This new historian enhances system self-awareness by consolidating data, presenting a comprehensive overview of grid performance over time. By employing a high-resolution approach, utilities can now analyze events leading to operational adjustments, improving their response strategies.
Why Historical Data Matters
Electric utilities are under constant pressure to adapt to emerging challenges while ensuring reliability and efficiency. SurvalentONE Helix addresses this by capturing and organizing historical data, enabling utilities to monitor grid behavior with greater accuracy. With detailed records of past events at their fingertips, utilities can conduct in-depth analyses after disturbances and track performance trends across different segments of the network.
User-Friendly Visualization with SurvalentONE Live
The launch of Helix brings along robust visualization tools through SurvalentONE Live. This web-based application simplifies the process of turning complex data into actionable insights. Users can design dashboards through a simple drag-and-drop interface, making insights accessible to various teams without sacrificing security considerations.
Promoting Collaborative Insights
One of the standout features of Live is its role in democratizing access to critical grid data. While engineers and operational teams traditionally had exclusive access to control systems, the streamlined interface of Live extends usability across departments, enhancing cross-collaboration and operational intelligence within the utility’s structure.
Integrating DERs with SurvalentONE DERMS
As the landscape of energy distribution evolves, Survalent is at the forefront of integrating distributed energy resources (DERs) into utility operations. With enhancements to SurvalentONE DERMS, the platform now facilitates the orchestration and integration of behind-the-meter resources using the IEEE 2030.5 standards.
Expansion to Utility Operations
This is particularly crucial as utilities lean toward more complex operational models that incorporate customer-side DER data into planning processes. By adopting standardized communication protocols, utilities can effectively engage with DER aggregators while maintaining oversight of grid operations, ensuring that the integration of these resources complements existing systems without compromising reliability.
Engaging with Survalent at DTECH 2026
Survalent invites professionals and stakeholders to explore these transformative enhancements at the upcoming DTECH 2026 event. Attendees will have the chance to experience hands-on demonstrations of SurvalentONE Helix and DERMS in action, as well as insight into how these tools can optimize operational efficiency.
The Future of Utilities
By leveraging cutting-edge technology like Helix and expanded DER capabilities, Survalent is helping utilities evolve from traditional distribution network operator (DNO) models to more sophisticated distribution system operator (DSO) frameworks. This shift is essential for utilities aiming to meet modern energy demands while incorporating new, reliable sources of energy.
