Company Summary
PATENTED WIRELESS communication, monitoring SOFTWARE + hardware developed at University of Manitoba ($ 13 MM development cost, PLUS 8 years) •• Electric Utility transmission infrastructure is congested and close to capacity •• Utilities apply static line ratings resulting in bottlenecks/congestion •• Monitoring only a few of these circuits and applying dynamic ratings increases energy transm'n capacity of entire network up to 23% •
