12. A distributed energy resource (DER) analytics engine comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing thereon computer executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving electricity consumption data of a plurality of sites from corresponding electricity meters of the plurality of sites;
detecting electric vehicle (EV) charging information based at least in part on the electricity consumption data;
obtaining EV telematics data of EVs associated with the EV charging information;
reconciling the EV charging information and the EV telematics data, the reconciling including:
receiving network topology information including feeder line information and transformers-to-meters relationships and attributes, and
analyzing the network topology information; and
generating, based on the reconciled EV charging information and EV telematics data, models for at least one of:
continuous EV load prediction,
electrical vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) detection, and
optimization for at least one of aggregated load, load per feeder, or maximum revenue for time-of-use tiers.
