Yesterday, Ambient Corporation, a leader in providing flexible and scalable smart grid communications platforms and technologies, announced it has taken its first step into the European market with a trial of its Power Quality Monitoring application and energy sensing equipment.

Part of the Low Carbon Networks Fund, overseen by U.K. regulator OFGEM, the trial is being conducted by U.K. distribution network operators (DNOs), Western Power Distribution, and U.K. Power Networks. The trial is focused on evaluating low voltage current sensor technologies and how network operators can utilize them in running their grids.

Being selected for participation in this project represents a key step for Ambient, as the company ventures into new geographies with significant potential. By deploying Ambient's communications platform with its internally developed software applications, DNOs have the capability of performing real-time current and voltage sensing, generating valuable data for monitoring their distribution networks and substations.

The participation of Ambient and other companies in this project will provide a clear understanding of the technologies available for Low Voltage Network monitoring. This will give essential data, allowing for greater visibility of the Low Voltage Network and, subsequently, facilitate smart networks.

The Power Quality Monitoring application is part of the Ambient Smart Grid Communications Platform, which facilitates multiple smart grid applications, in parallel, and is capable of using various communications simultaneously.

Ambient Corporation is engaged in designing, developing, and selling the Ambient Smart Grid communications platform, with products and services including communications nodes; AmbientNMS, a network management system; integrated applications; and maintenance and consulting services to help utilities save on operational costs. Ambient uses open, standards-based technologies and in-depth industry experience to provide utilities with solutions for their smart grid initiatives.
