Overview

The energy landscape is transforming rapidly. Utilities are shifting from fossil fuels to renewables, moving from centralized to distributed generation and from manual to smart automated grid systems. The rise of consumer renewable generation and battery storage is reshaping distribution grid dynamics.

Utilities must modernize power grids to optimize performance and dynamically balance supply and demand while managing the rising complexity and costs of multiple field area networks (FANs). Existing wireless networks are increasingly strained by the demands of digitalization and automation.

Wavesight’s Industrial-grade Private Wireless network delivers reliable, secure, mission-critical communications for all grid equipment, personnel, and applications on a converged dedicated network. With LTE/4.9G technology today and a seamless upgrade path to 5G, Wavesight empowers utilities to build smarter grids now and in the future.
