DTECH Decoded: Switched Source Unlocks Capacity and Drives Resiliency

Описание: One conversation that stuck with us at DTECH? The urgent need for utilities to say “yes” faster — yes to EV chargers, rooftop solar, and new customer load — and yes to faster power restoration when the next storm hits.

⚡️Enter: Switched Source’s Phase-EQ — a smart, pad-mounted controller that unlocks up to 2 MW of usable capacity by dynamically balancing voltage and load across all three phases of a distribution circuit.

💥 Why it matters:

On a blue-sky day? It defers millions in capex and enables fast interconnection of EVs and DERs.

On a stormy day? It strengthens FLISR operations, helping utilities reroute power around faults faster, restoring customers before a truck even rolls.

📉 Without this type of flexibility, utilities risk stranded capacity, longer outages, and rising costs — while customers are left in the dark (sometimes literally).

☁️ As extreme weather grows more frequent, utilities need grid flexibility that installs in hours — not years. That’s what makes Phase-EQ so impactful:

💡 Boosts reliability & voltage stability

⚙️ Supports switching under abnormal conditions

🧭 Is redeployable as grid needs evolve

Kudos to Switched Source for showcasing a scalable, ready-now tool to help utilities meet the moment — and the future.
