Showcasing at DISTRIBUTECH
This year AND Technology Research had the amazing opportunity of exhibiting at DISTRIBUTECH International 2020. The team showcased our PLC module and energy disaggregation technology alongside Renesas Electronics,who we would like to thank for inviting us. Renesas exhibited their latest smart grid innovations, including demos on Wi-SUN/SubGHz, modern PLC and many more.
What is DISTRIBUTECH International?
DISTRIBUTECH Internationa took place on the 28-30 January in San Antonio, TX, at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Centre. It is one of the industry’s leading annual transmission and distribution exhibitions of the year, attracting attendees from across the globe. Over the course of the event, exhibitors and speakers aimed to address technologies used to move electricity from the power plant through the transmission and distribution systems to the meter and inside the home.
This three-day immersive conference and exhibition, offered attendees information, products and services related to the future of energy including: electricity delivery automation and control systems, energy efficiency, demand response, renewable energy integration, advanced metering, T&D system operation and reliability, communications technologies, cyber security, water utility technology and more.
Over 520 companies exhibited , including Renesas Electronics, CISCO, IBM, and Accenture, bringing together some of the best thought-leaders and experts in the energy field today.
DISTRIBUTECH International is the utility industry’s largest annual gathering for electric, gas and water professionals, bringing together technology providers and grid operators to discuss the future of energy delivery. Showcasing there put ANDtr’s PLC module and energy disaggregation technology in front of exactly the audience evaluating new approaches to grid modernisation and demand-side energy management.
The PLC module, developed in partnership with Renesas Electronics, uses existing power line infrastructure to carry data — useful for smart street lighting and energy monitoring deployments where running new communication cabling isn’t practical. Energy disaggregation technology complements this by breaking down a building’s total energy usage into the consumption of individual appliances or circuits, without needing a smart meter on every device.
