Electrical Grid Monitoring Network
Venture Round in 2021
EGM has developed a monitoring system that allows for rapid threat detection and reaction for electrical grids. Its Meta-Alert system provides thorough, real-time data about the grid. It enables utilities to look deep inside their transmission and distribution networks on an ongoing basis and manage their grid more effectively. Its MSU sensors can help resolve problems on virtually any line segment. EGM's software provides predictive failure and pattern analysis to ensure that system alerts are accurate. The system can detect events such as physical disturbances, vibrations, corona discharges, copper theft attempts, and tree incursions. It also provides detailed information on current flow and phases, enabling real-time monitoring of actual line conditions by providing the grid operator with the information needed to balance current flows along multiple paths. The company is participating in the Shell accelerator funded by the US Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The system has been tested in Israel and on China's second-largest grid.
