OATI webDistribute is a patented Demand Response Management System (DRMS) that allows utilities to monitor, control, schedule, and manage their portfolios of Demand Response (DR) programs and Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). In addition to DR lifecycle management from program enrollment and event management, to billing and settlements, this web-based system also offers automated emergency demand response programs and state-run demand response programs. This demand response solution is highly configurable with advanced demand side management functionalities that seamlessly integrate DR/DER assets into distribution, transmission, and market operations for improved supply economics, enhanced reliability, and increased customer satisfaction. 

OATI demand response management system software allows utilities to manage diverse types of DR programs and demand-side resources from notification-based, price-responsive, and dynamic tariff-based DR programs to various direct load control methods. It also forecasts available DR capability based on weather, DR program, and enrollment parameters and can schedule and dispatch DR and DER and interface with field devices and load control equipment. One key value that differentiates OATI webDistribute from other demand response management systems (DRMS) is the fact it allows the participation of DR and DERs in energy, capacity, and various ancillary services markets. OATI webDistribute also allows customer and system baseline load computation and support for settlement operations.
 
OATI webDistribute provides full visibility and control capabilities to individual and aggregated demand-side resources.
