Super-GX Scale Grid-flexible Supervisory Control for Multiple Commercial Buildings and EV Charging (poster presented at the CEC EPRI Electrification Summit 2026)

et al.
Abstract

California has a statewide mandate to double demand response and load shifting capacity to 7,000 MW by 2030. Large commercial buildings have Demand Flexibility potential, but adoption is slow. 

The goal of the Super-GX research project is to demonstrate and scale demand flexibility (DF) in large commercial building Distributed Energy Resources (DER).

The objectives are to 

1)demonstrate and evaluate a market-ready demand response supervisory control,

2)exhibit coordination of load shedding and shifting among buildings and EV chargers to support the electric grid,

3)validate using open standards, standard semantic tagging and protocols to improve interoperability; contribute novel demand flexible strategies to open libraries, and develop tools/guidelines to encourage adoption; and

4)work with communities to promote value to end-users, provide education and training to building owners, facility managers, building operators, and software system integrators.
