USA: Oracle has introduced new enhancements to its Oracle Utilities Network Management System (NMS), strengthening grid management, DER integration, and outage response. These updates help utilities manage distributed energy resources (DERs) more efficiently, optimize grid reliability, and respond to growing energy demands and extreme weather events.
Used by six of the top ten U.S. utilities and serving over 61 million customers, Oracle’s modular Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) enables utilities to monitor, forecast, and optimize both front-of-the-meter and behind-the-meter resources. The upgraded DERMS module now offers real-time event planning, battery energy storage system (BESS) modeling, and improved EV charging management to enhance grid flexibility.
Additional improvements include enhanced SCADA capabilities, enabling better deployment and monitoring of field devices. The new Oracle Utilities Outage Management System OMS boosts crew coordination by improving assignment tracking and response times, while updates to Fault Location, Isolation, and Service Restoration (FLISR) help minimize outage durations.
Oracle’s expanded grid management solutions reflect the increasing need for a data-driven, scalable approach to modern power distribution. With AI-driven forecasting, DER orchestration, and remote operational capabilities, utilities can improve efficiency, reliability, and customer satisfaction while advancing grid resilience and decarbonization efforts.
