Electrical Infrastructure Monitoring
Digitalize and modernize the low voltage network to enable all the benefits of the smart grid
The challenge
Unveiling the Vulnerability of the LV Network in the Energy Transition
The energy sector is changing rapidly – massive adoption of renewables, distributed energy generation and emerging microgrids. All this, while energy consumption is rising exponentially.
This creates a big load on the most vulnerable part of the distribution grid – the LV network. There is limited to no visibility on the secondary substations, unlike middle and high-voltage infrastructures, which are equipped with SCADA systems.
The secondary substations at the LV part of the grid will be crucial for maintaining the balance of the grid due to several factors:
Operational inefficiency
Edge infrastructure is both aging yet overloaded with new electricity consumers (like EVs and thermal pumps). Maintenance crews work in the dark with partial and late information about asset conditions, causing operational inefficiency.
Planning inefficiency
EVs, solar panels and other distributed renewable sources create increasing and uneven load and constraints across the network.
Big data
coming from AMI and other IoT devices and systems are flooding the companies with data, which will not be helpful at all, if not analyzed and used in the right way, time and place.
The solution
Empowering Utilities with a Comprehensive IoT Solution for Grid Optimization
Arista EIM aims to enable safe, reliable and cost-efficient digital transition of the secondary substations.
Our combined hardware and software solution offers:
- Digitalization of the LV substations
- Real-time monitoring and reporting
