Providing reliable grid power is more difficult than ever

As demand for electricity increases and additional sources of power generation emerge, the growth of distributed generation and rapidly changing consumption patterns pose challenges to grid reliability. To solve these and other power challenges, utilities need visibility into the point of common coupling and grid distribution to proactively manage power supply.

80% of the power problems arise on the customer side of the meter
Because 80% of power issues originate on the customer side of the meter, utilities need visibility at the point of common coupling to manage customer perception and prove that the utility is not at fault for grid outages. This problem can be solved with an affordable monitoring solution that accelerates data-driven event resolution.

Improved distribution visibility enables utilities to optimize grid performance and justify capital improvements

Utilities need better distribution to optimize grid performance, identify power threats, and justify capital investments. This can be solved by capturing data that is essential to increasing return on investment through data-driven capital improvements, quantifying distribution grid health in real time, and accelerating field operations with detailed event signatures.

The solution to harness and understand network root data is the powerful and versatile PQube 3e Power Analyzer specifically for utilities.
