The widespread availability of renewable energy
electric mobility and electrified consumption
are pushing distribution networks
to take a much more central role
Today’s grids need to manage
higher and higher levels of flexibility
while distributing the produced energy in the best way
At the same time budget pressures
demand to enhance the legacy infrastructure
without rebuilding it, while keeping maintenance costs low
Our solutions for network infrastructure digitalization
leverage on remote control, automation, protection
avanced sensors and distributed energy resources management
to ensure the quality of the electrical service
We enable you to deal with aging assets
deferring investments on infrastructures, reducing costs
Now, let’s deep dive in one of the most cutting edge solution
This is the Quantum Edge Device
A revolutionary Device that enables the digitalization
and virtualization of secondary substation components
making the infrastructure more advanced sustainable and reliable
by reducing the number of elements
and the associated carbon footprint
Thanks to virtualization technologies
and decentralized computational capability
the Quantum Edge Device integrates
the most important functionalities in a single device
reducing the number of physical components
required in the substation
In particular the Quantum Edge Devices runs
Protection and control components
Remote Terminal Units
Smart Meter Data concentrator
IoT Sensors
