U.S. DOE Success Story Showcases Operant Networks
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) publishes a Success Story on Operant Networks as a Clean Energy Technology Startup Helping to Close the Door to Cyber Threats
Santa Rosa, CA - As the United States transitions to a clean energy future, the need for a secure, reliable, and coordinated cybersecurity approach for distributed energy resources (DER) becomes increasingly critical. Operant Networks has developed a novel technology that simplifies connecting distributed energy facilities to the broader electric grid.
Backed by multiple U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) research projects and a successful $3.8M Seed funding raise last year led by Constellation Technology Ventures, Operant is quickly becoming a leader in the industry. Today, we are providing secure and reliable connections to over 5GW of grid-connected generation facilities.
A recent success story spotlight from the DOE Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy (EERE) showcased Operant’s solution as the “clean energy networking technology [that] helps close [the] door to cyber threats”.
Previously, in a report published in 2021 called, The Solar Futures Study, Operant Network’s technology was identified as potentially “game-changing” with regards to enabling the transition to renewables while protecting national security.
