Safegrid changes all this and brings the grid to the 21st century.
Safegrid’s Intelligent Grid System™ helps locate, predict, and prevent grid faults and improve grid performance with instant-on wireless sensors and cloud-based monitoring and analytics.
The system consists of:
- Inexpensive and easy-to-install wireless sensors that provide an unprecedented level of visibility into the grid. The low cost and fast installation make the sensors the most cost-efficient grid monitoring system available on the market.
- Cloud-based analytics and monitoring software that gives both the big picture about the grid’s performance as well as instant actionable alerts about grid faults. Both web-based and app user interfaces are available.
Safegrid solutions are designed for fast installation and deployment. They can be operated on a fully standalone basis without time-consuming integrations, yet they feature powerful APIs for connecting them with other systems when needed.
Safegrid gives utilities and grid operators full 24/7 visibility into the grid and lets them locate faults faster and more accurately than before and also predicts faults and do timely preventive maintenance that improves grid performance and increases equipment service life. When fault locations are known, the crews can get to work faster, decreasing both costs and downtime.
The resulting fast FLISR and minimized SAIDI and SAIFI improve customer satisfaction and operational economics.
“Our vision is to first provide a full-stack FPI solution for utilities and grid operators and then expand our scope to enabling preventive maintenance and grid optimization with big data and machine learning technologies,” said Mr. Jussi Hakunti, the CEO of Safegrid. “Our solutions are designed from the ground up to remove traditional ROI bottlenecks such as missing connectivity, high cost, and slow deployment.”
