Closing the Grid Visibility Gap with Multi-Sensing Platforms

This is an independent research report by Guidehouse Insights, a market research group unaffiliated with any single technology vendor, commissioned to examine the T&D sensing and measurement (TDSM) landscape. 

Legacy grid monitoring tools can leave a critical visibility gap between the substation and the meter - a growing challenge as DERs, renewables, and microgrids add further complexity to distribution networks.

Guidehouse Insights estimates that distribution automation is fully deployed across only about 15% of North American networks, leaving much of the grid without visibility into outages and other conditions.

In this independent research report, Guidehouse examines the shift toward T&D sensing and measurement (TDSM) platforms that combine high-resolution sensing, real-time communications, and analytics to provide visibility deeper into the distribution network. EGM's multi-sensing units are highlighted as one example, continuously measuring and capturing over 40 physical, electrical, and environmental data points through a single sensing platform.

Learn more about how multi-sensing platforms can extend grid visibility, support higher-value applications, and consolidate functions now handled by separate systems by accessing the downloadable PDF below.
