Electric Utilities FreeWave delivers reliable, cost-effective wireless data communications from the distribution grid to network control sites in support of a wide range of applications, such as: Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Backhaul Distribution Management (DMS) Distribution Automation (DA) Substation Automation (SSA) Helping utilities provide the world with electric power and energy. For over 20 years, FreeWave Technologies has supported electric utilities with high performance telemetry products since we shipped our first highly reliable and secure spread spectrum radios 20 years ago. FreeWave’s solutions are used by every day by utilities to efficiently serve their residential and business users, while reducing operating costs and improving up time. FreeWave has more than 1,000,000 industrial radios and embedded modules in the field, where they excel in the most demanding conditions at power generating plants, power Load Management (LM) distribution substations, and in end-customer facilities. Demand Response (DR) FreeWave radios operate in licensed and unlicensed spectrum Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Energy Management (EMS) to connect network control centers to remote sensors, where they make the Smart Grid smarter – measuring line voltage, current and phase for load balancing, reporting standby generator fuel levels, controlling step-down transformers and reporting consumption. With a wide range of products solutions tailored for power utilities, you can trust FreeWave to deliver the reliable, cost effective and high performance systems you need to monitor, manage and control your Smart Grid electric power generation, high and mid voltage transmission line, and customer facilities.
