Fleet Commander

Actionable Data for Strategic Energy Management

Harness the power of real-time metering data and comprehensive configuration capabilities.

Armada’s Fleet Commander aggregates individual electric water heaters’ thermal energy storage capacity to create a single grid stabilization resource. We use real-time temperature measurements and power consumption data to learn usage patterns and provide real-time load balancing, empowering you to design and implement precise energy management strategies with minimal impact on customers.

Energy Resource Management

Orchestrating Energy at the Edge

Thermal energy storage and state of charge management to enable:

  • Demand Response
  • Peak Load Management
  • Cold Load Pickup
  • Energy Arbitrage
  • Frequency Response
  • Time of Use Optimization
  • Renewables Firming
  • Other Stackable Value Streams

Precise Load Management

Use temperature measurements, power consumption data, and usage patterns for millisecond load balancing.

Flexible Control

Manage power settings for individual tanks, specific groups, or entire fleets as needed.

Energy Optimization

Shave peaks and seamlessly sync usage with renewable assets to avoid rebound peaks.

State of Charge Management

Efficiently prioritize pre-heating and re-heating based on accurate state of charge data.

A Two-Way Energy Management Grid Resource

Monitor

As an advanced energy management tool, Fleet Commander allows users to monitor state of charge and strategically pre-heat water heaters before events, prioritizing the coldest tanks first.

Measure

Gain a comprehensive overview of your entire fleet’s health at any moment through our intuitive dashboard, enabling you to measure the impact of demand response events and adapt strategies as necessary.

Modify

Tailor the presentation of information to your specific needs, and streamline event modifications by quickly and easily parsing data by portfolio, complex, building, or number of event-classified water heaters.

Empowering MDU and Commercial Portfolio Managers

Gain valuable insights into the health and performance of water heaters across your portfolios while capitalizing on financial incentives offered by utility and grid operator programs:

Real-Time Data – Continuously monitor tank performance and critical metrics like temperature, power, and voltage.

Detection and Diagnostics – Identify leaks, element burnout, and tank anomalies, and verify cold water claims.

Remote Management – Control water heater settings and turn tanks on and off directly from your dashboard.

Financial Incentives – Benefit from rebates and incentives that often cover the costs of devices and installation.
