Industry alliance certifications ensure future interoperability of RF-enabled hardware deployed in smart grid networks. This standards-based certification demonstrates that utilities will be able to realize a future smart grid vision that securely connects devices critical to efficiently and reliably serve the needs of energy consumers. With a wide variety of Wi-SUN compliant devices already operating today on Landis+Gyr networks, utilities are better positioned to bring new devices onto the network for a variety of energy efficiency, grid management and smart city applications.
"Landis+Gyr continues to lead the smart grid industry in terms of products certified by standards organizations and industry alliances, as well as the number of certified network components and sensors deployed in the field," said Ruben Salazar, Global Head of Research and Technology at Landis+Gyr. "We are committed to achieving certifications from relevant organizations as they are available to ensure more reliable, scalable and interoperable communications solutions for electric, gas and water utilities."
