We are excited to announce a rebranding of Acumen EMS™ that more closely reflects our commitment to providing energy storage solutions that meet our customers’ diverse needs. Our Energy Management System (EMS), Acumen EMS, will now be called ‘ETB Controller.’
Over the years, we are proud to have deployed our EMS across North America and far beyond, and with this rebranding to ETB Controller, we aim to provide a clearer understanding of what our product does and can achieve. We’ve consistently heard the question, “You do controls?” at shows and industry events, and you may even be asking yourself that question now, “Energy Toolbase has controls?” By renaming Acumen EMS to ETB Controller, we’re aligning the product name with its core function—control. This new name seamlessly integrates with our suite of tools: ETB Developer, ETB Controller, and ETB Monitor, ensuring consistency and clarity. But it’s not the last time you will hear or see Acumen in correlation with Energy Toolbase.
Tailored Solutions for Diverse Industry Needs
For projects that require a more advanced EMS, we’re thrilled to continue offering Acumen AI. Our Acumen AI engine stands at the cutting edge of our innovation here at Energy Toolbase, and we continually invest in its development. Acumen AI is a great option for users looking to dynamically maximize value, allowing for more seamless deployments.
We recognize that every project is unique, meaning some might not require more specialized capabilities, like forecasting and optimization. For certain market segments that require fixed-scheduled controls, ETB Controller is designed to fit those needs perfectly. With ETB Controller, users have the flexibility to self-manage dispatch according to their specific requirements. ETB Controller is the perfect option for customers seeking direct, scheduled control of their assets, providing an efficient and tailored approach to energy management. In cases where the economic dispatch at a site grows more complex and necessitates an advanced EMS, upgrading the license to include Acumen AI will be a smooth and straightforward process. We will honor existing customer licenses for Acumen EMS, which will remain unaffected by the rebrand.
What’s Next for ETB Controller and Acumen AI?
Our team is excited about what’s ahead for ETB Controller and Acumen AI – including enhancements in optimization and forecasting, expanded support for grid services programs, and integration with key industry partners. This ongoing investment ensures that our advanced EMS remains at the cutting edge of technology. We’re particularly excited about an upcoming feature release called Operating Schedules! This addition will enhance ETB Controller’s capabilities, providing users with more control over their dispatch schedules.
We are proud to continue to meet the changing needs within the energy storage market and deliver a gold-standard level of service across all our offerings; our rebranding to ETB Controller and the continued development of Acumen AI is representative of this effort. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that every customer receives the highest quality support and solutions, regardless of the product they use.
