Survalent Technology Eastern US sales vice president Steve Strauss said that the company is pleased to welcome Berkeley Electric Cooperative to its growing number of ADMS users and new customers in South Carolina.

"With Berkeley’s upgrade to this new system, they will benefit from smart grid capabilities, as well as web technologies for users to securely view SCADA information," Strauss added.

"Survalent was able to convert the existing database and screen graphics from the prior system to allow for a smooth transition with a minimal amount of resources being required."
