Automated validation for demand response and DER programs

Test DER programsbefore they reachproduction.

GridMango automates the repetitive QA work behind baseline validation, telemetry checks, simulated DER assets, and end-to-end protocol testing—so energy teams can find problems earlier and preserve the evidence behind every result.

The validation gap

Critical programs are still tested with one-off spreadsheets, scripts, and manual coordination.

DERMS and demand response teams need to prove that telemetry, calculations, simulated assets, controls, and external integrations behave correctly together. The work is specialized, repetitive, and difficult to reproduce when every project starts from scratch.

GridMango turns those recurring tasks into visible, repeatable validation workflows.

Without GridMango
  • Manually assembled test data
  • Calculations spread across files
  • Integration failures found late
  • Evidence recreated for every review
With GridMango
  • Reusable simulated data and assets
  • Transparent, repeatable calculations
  • Controlled end-to-end test scenarios
  • Exportable findings and evidence

GridMango Workflows

Automate a complete validation process.

Start from an uploaded dataset or a scheduled run, then chain GridMango tools into a repeatable M&V, end-to-end testing, or protocol-validation workflow.

Start with the workflows that carry the most delivery risk

One validation workspace, two core paths.

01
Baseline and event performance

Make the calculation defensible before it reaches settlement or audit.

Validate interval coverage, candidate-day selection, methodology assumptions, same-day adjustments, and delivered event performance from one guided workflow.

  • Multiple baseline methods and scenario comparison
  • Selection and exclusion audit trails
  • Interval, summary, and evidence exports

02
Integration and protocol validation

Validate control and reporting workflows before field deployment.

Configure test endpoints and simulated assets, exercise protocol-specific events and commands, and inspect acknowledgements, state changes, telemetry, and reporting behavior in one controlled environment.

  • OpenADR 2.0b and 3.0 event and reporting workflows
  • OCPP 2.x Core charge-point lifecycle validation
  • Matter energy-profile and cluster readiness checks
  • Timelines and evidence for integration diagnosis

Supporting validation infrastructure

Prepare the data and test conditions around the core workflow.

TQ

Telemetry QA

Inspect interval alignment, convert timestamps, repair short gaps, and preserve correction evidence.

SD

Synthetic data

Generate deterministic meter and DER telemetry with separate import, export, and net channels.

GB

Green Button import

Interpret ReadingType units, direction, multipliers, and quality before downstream analysis.

EV

Evidence exports

Keep calculations, selected inputs, findings, and run context available for technical review.

How it works

From test condition to reviewable outcome.

GridMango keeps configuration, execution, and evidence connected so a test can be understood and repeated.
  1. 01

    Choose the workflow

    Start with a baseline, telemetry, simulation, or integration objective.

  2. 02

    Configure the conditions

    Load source data and define the methods, assets, targets, or expected behavior.

  3. 03

    Run and inspect

    Execute the scenario and review calculation quality, state changes, timelines, and failures.

  4. 04

    Export the evidence

    Retain the normalized data, results, and audit detail needed for the next decision.

Designed for technical scrutiny

Transparent assumptions. Controlled testing. Reviewable evidence.

Visible configuration

Methods and test conditions remain available for review instead of disappearing behind a score.

Customer data ownership

Uploaded data and generated outputs remain the customer’s data.

Security as product work

Access controls, operational safeguards, and enterprise security readiness are part of the platform roadmap.
