Olivine is operating in the vanguard of the rapidly changing electricity market, combating climate change and reshaping the future of energy

Who We Are

Olivine is an innovator in electrical load flexibility, working to strengthen system reliability, expand energy equity, and decarbonize the grid with clean resources. As a recognized leader in demand response (DR) and distributed energy resource (DER) management, we have advanced the industry through groundbreaking projects, next-generation software, and thought leadership, while building lasting partnerships with customers and stakeholders.

Since our founding in 2010, Olivine has delivered multiple industry firsts and proof-of-concept achievements. We became the first third party to integrate behind-the-meter resources into the California wholesale energy market, the first to bring batteries and EV chargers into that market, and one of the earliest to deploy digital dynamic rate signals and Virtual Power Plants (VPPs).

What We Do

Through our infrastructure and services, we build pathways that enable aggregated distributed energy resources (DERs), such as smart thermostats, electric vehicles, and solar and battery storage, to provide grid services effectively and efficiently. 

By bundling and integrating DERs, we help resource owners realize greater financial and operational benefits, unlocking new revenue streams that increase value and profitability while strengthening the overall grid.

Our core services include:

  • Program design and implementation
  • Marketing and enrollment support
  • Technical services
  • Software as a Service (SaaS)
  • Value stream optimization
  • Ongoing operational support

Why We Do It

Our mission is to eliminate energy insecurity while building resilience in the face of climate change.

Our Values

Partnership

We create true partnerships with our team, customers, partners and stakeholders to collaboratively achieve success and respond to the fast-changing needs of our industry.

How We Do It

At the heart of our work is the award-winning Olivine DER™ Platform, a distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) that provides the critical connection between DER owners, utilities, and independent system operators (ISOs).

The platform:

  • Optimizes flexible loads to reduce consumer costs
  • Maximizes DER value in wholesale markets and programs
  • Integrates directly with ISOs to ensure maximum results

With the Olivine DER™ Platform, we deliver a complete end-to-end solution for managing resources and achieving optimal operational flexibility in complex DR and DER markets and programs.
