Today, Energy industry is undergoing significant
transformation
+ Need for transformation driven by:
- Escalating costs of energy generation
against the regulatory pressures on
pricing
- Supply and network constraints requiring
significant investments
- Environmental & political pressure
- Aging workforce
+ Confusion in markets and technology
fields today, with many directions to
choose

Electric Utilities
+ Number of Utilities … 3,411
+ Electric Utilities serve over
140M residential and
commercial customers
+ Electric Utilities spent over
$2.3B in Smart Metering in
2006 (Energy Insights
Estimate)

Equal Service Level Across the Network
+Typically fixed installation
- Electricity meter outside or inside the house
- Sensor located throughout utility transmission and distribution
infrastructure
+Density - Downtown, Urban, sub-urban and rural environment
- Density of deployment can range from 4000 devices per square mile to 1
device per 10 square mile

Scalable Network
+Network must be scalable
- Millions of Meters
- Thousands of Distribution Devices
- Millions of Sensors

Low Capital Expense
+Communication devices costs must be in few dollars not
tens of dollars
+Capital expense includes
- Purchase cost of sensor
- Installation costs
+Installations
- Low Cost and Simple

20 year life
+Devices must last for 20 years in harsh outdoor
environment
+Over the Air Firmware Upgrade
+-40 C to 85C
+Surge and other AMI requirements from IEEE and ANSI
apply

Low Operational Expenses
+Any field trip is expensive and can be more than the cost
of the product
+Devices must be highly reliable
- 99.5% of the time no field visits should be required
- Remote programming, configuration, diagnostic
+Plug & Read networks
+Self healing

Bandwidth …Data Traffic
+Few kilobytes of continuous traffic
+Few seconds latency
+Reliable delivery of data – in excess of 99.5%
+Alarms and special events can cause few minutes spikes in
traffic
