Utilidata’s AI Sharpens The Grid’s Edge

Imagine a future where every household functions as an intelligent partner to the electrical grid, providing stored electricity, added stability, and early warnings about potential problems. This is the vision ofa Rhode Island startup moving closer to reality with the release of Karman—an AI platform for grid ‘edge’ devices like smart meters, powered by a state-of-the-art NVIDIA IoT board.

Utilidata's generates revenues by selling its Karman module and platform to utilities and grid hardware manufacturers. Its most recent big win was, the third largest smart meter manufacturer in the U.S. and a division of publicly traded grid equipment manufacturer, Hubbell .Sh gun Episode 10 Review A Powerful Finale But Not What I Was Expecting

In 2022, Utilidata raised $27 million in funding, led by Moore Strategic Ventures and joined by the Microsoft Climate Innovation Fund, NVIDIA, and others. This investment supported Utilidata's expansion into an integrated platform that make smart meters much smarter. Utilidata partnered with NVIDIA to design hardened IoT modules and then designed sophisticated embedded software to leverage its processing power. This AI-powered software platform and module is called Karman.

With Karman-equipped meters, however, each meter can anticipate an oncoming heavy power demand, and make a plan to supply non-essential loads at a later time without disrupting anything. Prior generation smart meters could only communicate basic usage data. The report suggests that ‘demand response’ programs could cut spending on electrical infrastructure by $755 million annually by 2035 in just one state—these savings and the associated carbon footprint reduction hinge on using existing equipment more efficiently.

U.S. Electric Grids Prepare for Decline in Solar Generation During Solar EclipseElectric grids across the U.S. are anticipating a rapid decline in solar generation during Monday's total solar eclipse. The eclipse is forecast to pass Texas and cause solar power generation to dip to roughly 8% of its maximum output at its peak. ERCOT expects solar generation to drop from more than 10,000 MW to about 1300 MW over two hours.
