Command complexity. Power control.
As energy systems become more complex, volatile, and interconnected, confidence comes from control you can rely on when conditions change.
Network Control helps operators stay in command with the real-time control needed to make mission-critical decisions.
Grounded in delivery, it unites data, applications, and processes into one operational environment, enabling confident operations today and safe evolution over time.
This is Network Control, re-envisioned
The energy systems of the future must be operated safely, at scale and at speed. This is how we deliver on that promise:
- Enable safe, incremental evolution
- Deliver proven control in real operations
- Make everything work as one
Built for the operating reality
You are not asking for less complexity. You are asking for the ability to command it.
Volatility is rising
Critical data sits in silos
Response time matters
Frequently Asked Questions
Network Control is Hitachi Energy’s portfolio for real-time monitoring, control and optimization of power networks. It helps utilities modernize grid operations, improve grid management and automate critical workflows across transmission, distribution, generation and electricity market environments. Combining software, services and domain expertise, Network Control enables utilities to operate increasingly complex networks safely, reliably and efficiently. Network Control helps connect and control a growing network of applications, data, AI, analytics and third-party systems that support modern utility operations.
Network Manager is the technology platform at the core of Hitachi Energy’s Network Control portfolio. It provides a common operational foundation that brings together grid operations, operational applications and network intelligence on a single platform, helping utilities manage increasingly interconnected systems with greater visibility and control.
Built on a common architecture, Network Manager supports applications including SCADA, EMS, ADMS, GMS, WAMS, DERMS and OMS, and can be deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid
Utilities choose Network Control to improve operational efficiency, resiliency and reliability as power systems become more dynamic and interconnected. Beyond managing physical grid assets, utilities increasingly need to integrate distributed energy resources, market operations, analytics, AI capabilities and third-party applications. Network Control helps unify these operational domains to support faster decisions and better outcomes.
It runs every discipline of grid operations from one interface, which cuts training time and improves operator efficiency: operators navigate seamlessly without switching systems. It deploys however the utility needs, on-premises, cloud or hybrid: Conduit Power’s move to AWS cut deployment from around eighteen months to six. It is proven at every scale, from a single independent power producer to nine Japanese transmission and distribution companies running nationwide load dispatching. It is built for a high-DER grid, with DERMS and GMS extending real-time control to distributed and renewable generation. And it is developed with customers rather than at them: ELES is a co-creation partner, not just a user.
Network Manager ADMS covers real-time monitoring, control, network analysis, optimization and outage management for the distribution grid as a whole. Network Manager DERMS is grid-aware software specifically for integrating distributed energy resources, solar, storage, EV charging, into those same operations, using the network model and both present and forecast conditions.
Yes. Network Manager deploys on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid. Conduit Power runs Network Manager SCADA and GMS on AWS, cutting deployment time from about eighteen months to six.
Network Manager EMS gives transmission utilities visibility and control of grid operations, from real-time monitoring through predictive optimization, built on the same cybersecure, high-performance SCADA platform used across Network Manager.
SCADA provides the real-time operational foundation for monitoring and control. Network Manager extends those capabilities through applications such as EMS, ADMS, GMS, WAMS, DERMS and OMS, while also providing a platform for integrating operational data, analytics and third-party applications. This enables utilities to move beyond monitoring assets to coordinating a broader network of operational systems.
Network Manager WAMS (Wide Area Monitoring System) helps transmission operators improve grid operations through real-time monitoring, wide-area visibility and early detection of abnormal system conditions. Integrated with Network Manager SCADA and EMS, it enables operators to view SCADA, EMS and WAMS information through a common interface, delivering actionable insights from high-frequency PMU data to support grid stability, situational awareness and proactive network management across increasingly interconnected power systems.
Yes, through Network Manager OMS: isolating outages, prioritizing repairs, dispatching crews and speeding restoration with mobile-enabled, integrated tools. DEMCO uses it to restore power through extreme weather in Louisiana.
Named users include CenterPoint Energy (ADMS), Dixie Electric Membership Corporation (OMS), CK Energy (integrated IT/OT), Empresa de Electricidade da Madeira (DER management), Conduit Power (cloud SCADA and GMS), Oslo Airport (SCADA), and nine Japanese transmission and distribution companies (SCADA, EMS and market management).
MMS (Market Management System) is part of Hitachi Energy’s Network Control portfolio. It helps market and system operators manage wholesale electricity markets through advanced bid-to-bill capabilities, market clearing, congestion management, forecasting, settlements and market operations. Supporting nodal, zonal and hybrid market models, MMS helps operators maintain efficiency, reliability and security while integrating renewables, distributed energy resources and emerging market requirements.
