## About ConnectDER

The company also provides supporting software like ConnectDER Cloud for operational data and ConnectDER Bridge for real-time visibility. With over 15,000 units shipped across 17 states, ConnectDER is approved to sell its solutions in over 20 states, reaching 16 million households.
