Today’s evolving regulatory policies and advances in Smart Grid technology present multifaceted challenges for energy providers and offer opportunities for realization of economic and environmental benefits for consumers, energy providers and government. IPKeys provides the standards based energy interoperations software, network design, communications engineering and enterprise security solutions that enable power providers and their customers to achieve the promise of a more reliable, safer and more economically beneficial Smart Grid.
IPKeys’ software, network communications engineering & enterprise security enable:
• Significant energy expenditure savings to commercial, industrial and residential consumers and utilities by using open standard control protocols
• Dramatic capital expenditure savings by reducing need for continued development of "peaker" power plants
• Reduced frequency of potential disturbances and the enormous costs associated with power outages by allowing real‐time load control
• Economic and environmental benefits of alternative energy and renewable sources such as solar and wind power by using load control to compensate for intermittent power generation methods and permitting renewable sources to trade energy in various markets
• Consumers to act as smart purchasers of energy and make informed decisions about their energy usage and, potentially, reduce their energy costs
As early adapters, the company installed the first FDDI (fiber data distributed interconnect) networks in Southern California, the first ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) in San Diego, the first layer three switches in Mexico, and the first Cisco AVVID (architecture for voice, video, and integrated data)in the western United States. We recognized early on that products from different manufacturers did not necessarily work well together and that there was a large requirement for advanced engineering to ensure success of complex system integration.
