Briefings

Splight deployed its dynamic congestion management software in Chile to increase transmission capacity by 60% on two 220-kV corridors, enabling rapid ramp-downs from wind farms during grid contingencies. This approach reduces reliance on line reserve capacity, allowing more renewable power to flow under normal conditions. The system, which went live earlier this year, targets chronic renewables curtailment in Chile's windy south by coordinating batteries and other assets. Splight is now expanding its U.S. market, having raised $12.4 million last year to fund the initiative, with discussions with utilities and renewable developers.

Key points

• Splight deployed its dynamic congestion management software in Chile to increase transmission capacity by 60% on two 220-kV corridors, enabling rapid ramp-downs from wind farms during grid contingencies.
• Splight raised $12.4 million last year to fund its U.S. expansion, with discussions with utilities and renewable developers regarding deploying data centers as grid resources.

Context

Splight's dynamic congestion management software is now being used to increase the capacity of two transmission corridors in Chile, targeting chronic renewables curtailment across the country's windy south. The company raised $12.4 million last year to fund the endeavor, with discussions with utilities and renewable developers in the U.S. regarding deploying data centers as grid resources.

Limitations

Evidence covers only Chile's deployment of Splight's software on two 220-kV corridors, with no data on U.S. deployment status, financial figures, or specific dates for the U.S. expansion. The evidence does not confirm whether the Chile deployment was successful or if the U.S. expansion has occurred, nor does it provide details on the specific U.S. deployment timeline or outcomes.
