Resilient and Reliable Power

Gain greater control over your power, improve efficiency, and keep your operation running reliably with distributed energy resources (DERs) located closer to where you need them. Cleveland Brothers helps you integrate solutions like combined heat and power (CHP), microgrids, energy storage, and advanced load management to create a more flexible and resilient power system.

Cat AMP Software

This Distributed Energy Resource Management (DERM) software plays a key role in optimizing renewable energy systems. It automates the dispatch of energy based on demand and market conditions, provides real-time performance insights, and helps manage renewable energy alongside other distributed energy resources.

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Systems

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems maximize efficiency by producing both electricity and usable thermal energy from a single fuel source. By capturing and reusing heat that would otherwise be wasted, CHP systems can achieve energy efficiencies up to twice as high as those of conventional generation methods. For facilities with significant and consistent thermal demands, such as manufacturing plants, hospitals, and universities, CHP provides a reliable solution to reduce fuel consumption, lower emissions, and decrease overall energy costs.

Solar Panels Microgrid

Microgrids

Microgrids are localized energy systems capable of operating either connected to the utility grid or independently, providing power security and flexibility where it matters most. By integrating multiple distributed energy resources such as generators, battery storage, and renewable inputs, microgrids allow facilities and communities to maintain power during outages or grid disturbances while optimizing local energy production to reduce peak demand and dependence on centralized generation. Cleveland Brothers offers microgrid solutions that enhance resiliency and efficiency for critical infrastructure, industrial operations, and remote sites.

Load Management and Demand Response

Effective load management is essential for optimizing distributed energy performance and controlling operational costs. By pairing Cat battery energy storage systems with advanced controls and Cat AMP software, Cleveland Brothers enables customers to store excess power generated during off-peak periods and discharge it during high-demand hours. This approach stabilizes energy supply, reduces reliance on expensive peak purchases, and supports participation in demand response programs while also playing a crucial role in supporting renewable integration. These systems balance variable energy inputs from solar, wind, or biogas with steady, dispatchable power. Whether deployed as part of a microgrid or a standalone resource, our solutions help improve efficiency, reliability, and your return on investment.
