Bend it. Balance the grid.
Curva turns fragmented AMI, GIS, SCADA and billing data into one grid intelligence layer — so distribution utilities can see feeder stress before it happens, and turn rising DER growth into an operating advantage instead of an operating risk.
Different symptoms.
One missing layer.
Wherever solar and DER penetration outruns grid visibility, the same pattern shows up — fragmented systems, no unified view, and stress that compounds quietly until it's expensive.
Visibility gaps
No unified real-time view of feeder or transformer stress across AMI, GIS, SCADA and billing.
Renewable strain
Rising solar penetration causing voltage rise, phase imbalance, reverse power flow.
EV blind spots
No visibility into EV charging timing, location, or concentration on the feeder.
Storage uncertainty
No data-driven approach to siting battery storage or community storage.
Untapped flexibility
Controllable loads — pumps, HVAC, water heaters — with no coordination.
Program gaps
No structured way to design, deploy, or settle demand response and DER programs.
These aren't separate problems. They're symptoms of a missing planning and operational process for managing distributed energy resources.
As rooftop solar, EV charging, storage, and flexible demand grow, utilities need a systematic way to assess impacts, identify constraints, evaluate alternatives, deploy flexibility programs, and measure results.
Turning DER growth
into operating advantage.
Curva gives planners and operators a shared view of where the grid is changing, then adds forecasting, analytics and optimization — so they can identify constraints, evaluate flexibility options, and trigger the right response before it becomes a cost.
Build the visibility
Feeder- and asset-level visibility into where load, DER growth, voltage stress, reverse flow and flexibility are emerging across the grid.
Get ahead of constraints
Forecast where renewable generation, EV demand and load growth will create constraints — before they appear in operations.
Design the response
Design, simulate, deploy and settle demand response, DER and flexibility programs across feeders, customer groups and operating zones.
Dispatch what matters
Dispatch EV charging, storage, inverters or flexible demand to reduce peaks, manage voltage and relieve feeder constraints.
From passive delivery
to active orchestration
Curva's platform philosophy moves a utility through five capability stages, each widening in scope as metering and data maturity grow.

Dynamic pricing
Two pillars. One loop.
Under the hood, that operating advantage runs on one architecture, not a single black-box control layer: understanding the grid, and acting on it, built as one continuous loop.
Understand
Coordinate & Act
Understanding shapes action. Field results continuously refine that understanding. Neither pillar works without the other.
Start with insight. Scale with evidence
Each stage produces something real before asking for the next commitment.

When DER growth outpaces grid visibility
This illustrates a challenge increasingly faced by distribution utilities. Distributed energy resources are growing faster than the systems used to plan, coordinate, and manage them.
Illustrative utility scenario
COMMON UTILITY CHALLENGEIllustrative scenario based on common characteristics of renewable-heavy distribution utilities. Individual utility outcomes will vary.
The grid is changing faster than traditional planning cycles.
Curva helps utilities understand where flexibility, DER growth, and emerging constraints will appear so they can act before costly grid upgrades become the only option.
