SmartGrid / Utilities

America is on a mission to transform the way we manage energy consumption - and Sprint is helping to lead the way. Due in part to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, our nation is saying goodbye to inefficient utility control systems plagued by slow reaction speeds, incompatibility and isolation. Instead, we're working to implement SmartGrid and automated-meter applications for electric, water and natural gas utilities using both our Nextel National Network and Nationwide Sprint Network.
SmartGrid / Utilities

Thanks to Sprint, SmartGrid solutions and smart meters, a real-time, automated, meter-reading infrastructure (AMI) is being rolled out across the country. This means consumers and utilities will have unprecedented visibility into their power consumption. Utilities will be able to better predict and meet demand using the most cost-efficient power, and there will be greater flexibility in deploying renewable power into the grid.

Sprint has a legacy of working with utilities and technology developers in an open ecosystem. And in the effort to connect and revolutionize our nation's energy management, Sprint, along with Clearwire, is bringing WiMax to America - a global standard for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.

Find out how we can assist your organization with supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), distribution automation (DA), CSO/SSO water collection system flow measurement and alarming, emerging solutions for GPS tracking, LBS, and GIS systems.
