Energy and Power Quality Monitoring

Internet Protocol (IP) and web technology has matured to the point where utilities and their C&I customers can finally monitor their GE KV2 smart meters in real-time inexpensively, while disseminating the information to all levels of an organization where the information can be used to increase efficiency, cut costs, and improve customer service.

Utility Automated Meter Reading and Demand Control

Internet Energy Systems, Inc. (IES) has developed an automated meter reading (AMR)/load management system specifically for municipal utilities.

Advanced features are available on premium gateway versions.
