Intellastar, a leader in real-time energy intelligence and distributed grid optimization, today announced a strategic collaboration with Loudon Energy Analytics to expand market participation, enhance energy forecasting, and unlock new value streams for commercial and industrial energy users.
As part of this partnership, Intellastar will integrate ORFEUS—a sophisticated stochastic modeling tool developed by researchers at Princeton University under the DOE ARPA-E PERFORM project and commercialized by Loudon Energy—into its flagship Energy Analyst platform. This integration will enable advanced forecasting, market scenario planning, and real-time optimization across ISO markets.
The collaboration also marks the appointment of Rana Mukerji, founder of Loudon Energy Analytics and former Senior Vice President of Market Structures at NYISO, as Strategic Advisor to Intellastar.
“This collaboration allows us to bridge real-time operations with forward-looking market strategies,” said Rana Mukerji. “By combining ORFEUS with Intellastar’s Energy Analyst platform, we’re equipping customers with the intelligence needed to manage uncertainty and maximize opportunity in dynamic energy markets.”
“Rana’s insight and the capabilities of ORFEUS will significantly enhance our ability to deliver economic value through data-driven decisions,” added Stephen Lynch, CEO of Intellastar. “Together, we’re building the tools that energy users need to thrive in the next generation of the grid.”
Strategic Priorities:
– Integration of predictive analytics and stochastic modeling into real-time platforms
– Expansion of demand-side resource optimization in capacity and ancillary service markets
– Joint development of scalable strategies for load-serving entities and distributed energy providers
