Protect the financed return
Keep the live P&L tracking — or beating — the IRR, payback and net revenue the investment case promised.
¶ Site Operator · BRM DERMS
Your site, run for peak performance.
Site Operator (DERMS) is the operating system for your live site — orchestrating EV charging loads, storage, on-site generation and the grid in real time, 24/7/365, so the financial performance your investment case promised is the performance you actually bank. For commercial, industrial, retail and multi-residence sites, fleets and charging hubs.

¶ 01 · Why it matters
A financed project only pays back if the site performs — every day.
Brightmerge Site Design proves a site can hit its numbers. Brightmerge Site Operation is what makes it actually happen — continuously, automatically, for the life of the asset.
Cut energy cost, continuously
Real-time minimization of energy spend — shifting load, charging storage off-peak, and shaving demand peaks against live tariffs.
Maximize uptime & utilization
Keep chargers available and assets healthy, so every connector earns — more sessions, fewer faults, higher revenue per site.
Turn flexibility into revenue
Coordinate storage, generation and charging so spare capacity becomes grid-services and market income — not idle hardware.
¶ 02 · How it works
The optimization loop that never stops.
Site Operator runs a closed loop over every asset on site — sensing, deciding, and acting in real time, then reconciling every action against the financial plan. No spreadsheets, no manual dispatch.
Monitor
Real-time SCADA telemetry from chargers, batteries, PV, meters and feeders — one live picture of the whole site.
Optimize
One engine co-optimizes energy cost, charging demand and asset dispatch against live tariffs, load and grid signals.
Dispatch
Setpoints sent back to assets every cycle: charge, store, discharge, draw or curtail — automatically.
Track
Every action is measured against the investment case, with integrated financial tracking and alerts on drift.

¶ 03 · One engine, every layer
Savings first. Then revenue on top.
The same optimization engine works down the whole value stack — capturing behind-the-meter savings before reaching out to markets and the grid. You don't pick a layer; you get them all, prioritized automatically.

Grid services
Frequency response, voltage and reactive-power support delivered from the same assets — without disrupting charging.
Available revenue layers depend on your market, tariff and interconnection.
¶ 04 · Built for live operations
Sits on top of the hardware you already have.
Works with your site
Vendor-agnostic
Runs across mixed battery, charger, PV and meter brands — no rip-and-replace.
Multi-protocol
Talks to assets over standard industrial and energy protocols.
Edge + cloud
Real-time control on-site; monitor and manage the whole portfolio from anywhere.
Retrofit-friendly
New or existing sites — commission without disrupting operations.
Built to keep running
Autonomous operation
Optimizes and dispatches on its own — no operator babysitting required.
Resilient by design
Keeps the site safe and running through connectivity loss, then resyncs.
Real-time SCADA monitoring
One live picture of every asset, with alarms and event logging.
Remote control & alerts
Act on any site from one console; get notified the moment performance drifts.
Tied to the money
Integrated financial tracking
Live P&L measured against the DIEM investment case — not just kWh.
Continuous cost minimization
Every optimization cycle targets the lowest blended cost of energy.
Reporting & dashboards
Operations and finance views, with Power BI and Tableau integration.
Secure & compliant
¶ 05 · From one site to your whole portfolio
One site, optimized. Your whole portfolio, orchestrated.
Site Operator runs each live site for peak performance — then runs them together. Operate the entire portfolio from one place, benchmark site against site, and push what works at your best location to every other.
Step 01 · Per site
Every site at its best
Each location runs its own real-time loop — lowest energy cost, highest uptime, performance tracked to its own investment case.
Step 02 · Across sites
Portfolio-level optimization
Coordinate dispatch and benchmark performance across the fleet, so the portfolio reaches gains no single site could on its own.
Step 03 · As one asset
An aggregated, optimized fleet
Your sites operate as a single, optimized portfolio — managed centrally, with industry-leading portfolio-level performance.

That same aggregated portfolio is exactly what qualifies for grid-services revenue — operate all your sites together as a virtual power plant with Brightmerge VPP.
