Monitoring and control hardware for distributed generation, distribution and grid-edge assets in the field.

Grid-edge monitoring chainInstrument the feeder, concentrate and buffer at the RTU, backhaul over whatever link the site has. The RTU rides out both a dropped link and a power dip.Feedertransformer · lineSCADADNP3 · IEC 61850MeteringCT · PTpower qualityBackhaulcellular · RFAnalyticsload · outageRTU · gatewaystore-and-forwardride-through

The problem

What makes it hard

  • Assets are spread across sites with no reliable backhaul, so data has to survive hours of link loss without gaps or reordering.

  • Field enclosures see wide temperature swings and electrical noise that a lab-bench design does not account for.

  • A fleet in the field needs provisioning, secure identity and OTA updates with no truck roll.

What this needs

Relevant capabilities

  • Industrial Data GatewaysField protocols behave badly; the gateway is where that gets handled, with buffering that survives a dropped link.
  • IoT ConnectivityField devices onto a network, provisioned with identity and an update path that still works in year five.
  • PCB DesignBoards designed for signal integrity, power and manufacture from the first schematic sheet.
  • Embedded Linux & YoctoReproducible Yocto builds with licence compliance and update signing done first, not deferred until expensive.
  • System ControlOpen- and closed-loop control with the determinism budget — jitter, latency, failure behaviour — stated up front.
