Awesense Wireless has created a system that helps utilities solve one of the industryrsquos most persistent problems unanticipated losses due to theft or

equipment failure Approximately 30 percent of Indiarsquos power gets illegally siphoned off In Brazil 10000 new unauthorized connections appear every

month Even in established nations bill fraud and meter tampering remain far-reaching problems Unfortunately utilities have historically lacked

economical or practical means to combat the problem relying instead on warnings inspections lock boxes and hope Awesense changes the paradigm

by giving utilities the ability to detect and anticipate problems over wide portions of a service territory through hardware software and networking The

Awesense system also provides verification ongoing monitoring and data analysis while minimizing field operations or installed infrastructure While

Awesense has already helped North American customers like Fortis BC and others recover tens of millions of dollars in losses it has also begun to

collaborate with ELO Sistemas Eletronicos to bring the technology to Latin America Awesense Wirelessgtgt

Article A start-up emerges to use wireless mesh and the cloud to fight energy theft

Author Katie Fehrenbacher


Awesense a startup using wireless mesh tech and software has launched to sell utilities energy theft-prevention Didnrsquot know it

was such a problem A Canadian utility has said itrsquos losing $100 million a year to theft in India about 30 percent of power is used

illegally

tweet this

Utilities call energy theft mdash like when an indoor marijuana farm taps directly into a high voltage line for its super bright lights mdash a ldquonon-

technical lossrdquo or a ldquocommercial lossrdquo Itrsquos a bizarrely mundane term to describe thefts which cost utilities billions of dollars in losses a

year around the world For example Canadian utility BC Hydro has estimated that itrsquos losing a shocking $100 million each year from

power theft

That security problem is what a young Canadian startup called Awesense has emerged to tackle The company founded back in late 2009 has

developed a product that uses power line sensors connected through a wireless mesh network combined with a cloud-based application Utility workers

can use the combo to remotely monitor and learn details about how much power their companies are actually distributing versus how much power is

being measured by their billing systems In other words ldquohow much revenue theyrsquore losingrdquo as Awesense founder and CEO Mischa Steiner-Jovic

explains it

Awesensersquos technology is a mobile solution mdash utility workers clamp on the power line sensors wherever they suspect theft is happening and if no theft

is being detected they can simply move the network to another part of the grid The sensor nodes create the ad-hoc mesh network amongst themselves

(via the 915 band in North America for all you wireless spectrum geeks out there)

The capital expense of the networks are low enough that Awesense has now decided to start selling theft detection

as a service Awesense will install the technology for utilities for no upfront cost and then take a cut of the revenue

saved Steiner-Jovic says over the past few years theyrsquove realized that therersquos been a lot of interest from utilities for

the theft-detection product but that utility budgets are often times small and rigid

In addition to growing its theft detection-as-a-service this year Awesense is hoping to grow its list of international

customers where energy theft is a massive issue Currently it has customers (itrsquos not disclosing the names other than Fortis BC) in Canada the US

and Latin America and itrsquos looking to expand more into Latin America as well as Asia Pacific and Europe India has some of the highest theft losses in

the world with close to 30 percent of the power in the country lost to theft (check out some photos of the crazy jerry-

rigged power grids of Old Delhi) The former Soviet Union has almost 50 percent Brazil is at 15 percent

To date Awesense has been mostly bootstrapped and just raised a ldquoseven figurerdquo round from angels last Summer

Steiner-Jovic says the company could be interested in raising a venture round in the future to grow its business Applying

IT tech to the power grid and clean energy is still an area where startups have been able to get funding from some

venture capitalists despite the difficult funding environment for most cleantech


Article Startup Clamps Down on Energy Theft

Author Martin LaMonica


Awesense attaches clamps to power lines to pinpoint sources of electricity theft which costs utilities billions of dollars a year

A clamp sensor is attached to a power line with standard power line tools and through a cloud application can help determine if

electricity is being lost through theft Credit Awesense Billions of dollars worth of electricity is pilfered every year sending power to

individual homes and businesses as well as more large operations such as marijuana farms

A study from the Electric Power Research Institute in 2006 estimated that ldquonon-technical lossesrdquo or losses from theft or tampering was $65 billion That

number is much higher in other countries where tapping into power lines is routine both by people who canrsquot afford electricity as well as big companies

and the well-to-do according to the World Bank which says energy theft is particularly severe in India Brazil and other parts of Latin America

Reducing energy theft is one of the justifications for advanced power meters because they are accurate and since they continually send consumption

data to utilities can quickly spot unusual activity In 2009 the World Bank published an analysis of energy theft and recommended that advanced meters

be put in place because among other reasons theft raises the prices of electricity for others Losses during distribution and transmission in India for

example were as high as 38 percent in 1999 which was cut to under 20 percent by 2008 in large part by controlling theft according the World Bank

But often thieves will simply tap power lines before they reach the meter or for more sophisticated theives draw power from high-voltage lines says

Mischa Steiner-Jovic the CEO of Awesense a company he founded three years ago to tackle energy theft Its theft-detection method doesnrsquot require

smart meters offering a relatively simple and inexpensive way to pinpoint where power is being diverted illegally

Awesense sells a sensor that a line worker attaches to power lines The battery-powered clamp measures the amount of current flowing through

calculates power consumption and sends the data back to Awesensersquos hosted application called SenseNET

By comparing actual consumption to billed electricity the back-end software can determine if some theft is happening in that area usually within a day

according to Steiner-Jovic The clamp-on sensors are normally only in place temporarily and then moved to another spot

On Tuesday Awesense is announcing a managed service where it will do the work of attaching monitors and generated the data Instead of having a

utility buy the system Awesense will be paid by sharing savings from throttling theft

The system has been used by a ldquohandfulrdquo of utilities in North America and the Vancouver-based company plans to expand into Europe in the first quarter

with pilot tests Steiner-Jovic says In its first trials the company found theft can add between $50 to $200 in electricity bills a year The company has

been funded by a round from angel investors last year

Itrsquos also a very dangerous to tap live power lines which can cause shocks or fires according to Michigan-based Consumers Energy which deals with

70000 cases a year ldquoNot only is energy theft illegal it is also a safety threat - to those who tamper with electric utility equipment to the general public

and to utility workers who can be injured or killed by hazards left behind by the culpritrdquo said Chuck Walls vice president of customer financial operations

of ComEd in a release about its help in convicting a local man for stealing power


Article Startup fights power thieves pot growers

Author Kirsten Korosec


Billions of dollars worth of electricity is stolen each year by folks tapping into power lines to bring free

energy into their homes businesses and increasingly to their indoor pot growing operations Itrsquos an

incessant global problem thatrsquos expected to get worse as demand for power grows

Awesense a Canadian startup that has remained largely under the radar since its founding in 2009 has

launched a service to help utilities curb power losses and recover revenue lost by theft transformer

overloads and other equipment failures

The company has developed a product called the SenseNET system which combines hardware data

analytics networking and advanced monitoring to pinpoint power losses from equipment failures and

power diversion (aka theft) caused by meter tampering or wire ldquotappingrdquo

How it works

The heart of the system is the SenseNET Monitor a networked sensor that clips onto transmission and distribution lines Utility workers can attach a

networked sensor in less than two minutes with a hot stick or a truck to wirelessly monitor that particular section of the grid via a laptop or tablet in real

time The sensors which are connected through a wireless mesh network can help the utility identify inefficiencies and power theft Once the problem

has been fixed the utility can move the sensors to a different section of the grid

Canadian utility Fortis BC is using the sensor technology An unnamed US utility with about 34000 meters and 1800 miles of energized lines has

deployed the SenseNET system under a service contract Utilities in Malaysia Turkey Bulgaria and the Czech Republic also will begin trials of the

service in the first quarter of the year

In the past Awesense sold its technology as a turn-key system to utilities Now the company is selling it as a service that doesnrsquot require the utility to

make an upfront capital investment Once a utility signs on and begins using the service Awesense is paid through a percentage of recovered revenue

Global problem

Those recovered revenues could be substantial In India alone about 27 percent of the power generated gets siphoned off through theft costing the

nationrsquos distribution companies an estimated $16 billion a year according to Indiarsquos Central Electricity Authority Globally $202 billion worth of electricity

generated is lost each year due to technical failures or theft according to World Bank estimates

Energy theft is a problem in developed nations as well Energy diversion like when an illegal pot growing operation taps into a power line costs US

utilities an estimated $6 billion a year making electricity the third most stolen commodity behind credit card information and cars according to data

provided by Awesense


Article How a Startup Helps Utilities Spot Energy Theft

Author Ucilia Wang (Contributing Editor)


SAN FRANCISCO -- Stealing electricity costs not only utilities but also the consumers who help to pay for the costs of producing and transporting power

A startup called Awesense is using sensors and data analytics to help utilities detect energy theft and improve the efficiency of the grid

The company founded in 2009 and located in Vancouver in Canada recently signed up a US utility that agreed to use Awesenses new sales model

said Mischa Steiner-Jovic CEO ofAwesense Instead of selling the equipment and software outright Awesense can finance the equipment installation

and data crunching and make money by getting a percentage of the revenue that comes from stopping the energy theft or charging a fee Steiner-Jovic

declined to disclose the name of the utility that has opted for the service contract

Power companies in Malaysia Turkey Bulgaria and the Czech Republic also plan to carry out trials of Awesense technology starting this quarter he

added Fortis BC in British Columbia is one of its customers

About $220 billion worth of electricity gets lost annually because of theft or technical problems with the grid according to a report by the World Bank in

2009 Most of the losses arent due to technical problems though Energy theft is a big problem in India about 27 percent is diverted illegally according

to its government Theft amounts to $6 billion per year in the US according to the same report

Most power thefts bypass the meters so its difficult for utilities to determine where they are occurring Steiner-Jovic said

The startups technology consists of portable sensors that are about 10-inches tall by 1-inch wide and 4-inches deep and weigh less than a kilogram

each Utility workers can clip them onto wires where the sensors would measure the current and calculate the energy (in kilowatt-hours) that flows

through the line Through the startups own wireless network the data goes back to Awesenses data center for analysis and are accessible by its utility

customers

The company has designed its technology for the distribution grid because that is where power theft most commonly takes place The distribution grid

also is less efficient than the transmission grid because it takes power from the high-voltage transmission lines lowers the voltages along the way and

sends the electricity to homes and businesses

The amount of sensors and how closely they are to one another depend on what a utility wants to accomplish If it wants to simply monitor the energy

flow to a line that serves say 100 homes then it could install one sensor on that line If it wants to pinpoint more precisely where energy losses are

occurring then it would move sensors around or add more of them to home in on the cause which could be theft or technical problems

The data gives a utility good figures on how much energy flows through and is used in a particular area Steiner-Jovic said Otherwise they figure out

overall losses based mostly on numbers that show how much power theyve generated or bought and how much they have sold

Because Awesenses equipment takes stock of the energy flow and demand it also could help utilities figure out where they need to add new distribution

lines or install power generation equipment such as solar energy systems to feed the demand

By selling its services rather than its equipment and software Awesense can serve utilities that dont want to invest the capital or hire employees to

manage the sensor and data collection It also reduces risk for utilities which are known to take a while to adopt new technologies and would likely

prefer to buy a service rather than invest in equipment from a startup that may not stick around long enough to provide maintenance and fulfill

warranties Awesense raised its first equity round last year but Steiner-Jovic declined to say how much

Article Awesense Wireless and the Movable Smart Grid

Author Jeff St John


The distribution power grid -- the part of the grid that carries medium- and low-

voltage electricity from substations to end users -- is mostly ldquodarkrdquo nowadays with

little in the way of sensors or data for utilities to use to map out just what problems

those parts of the grid are facing let alone how to fix them

Bringing light to that darkened distribution grid is the goal of the sensors

communications and control systems that make up distribution management and

automation systems DA is a big and growing business -- GTM Research

predicts the US market alone will grow from an annual $175 billion in 2012 to peak

at just more than $3 billion in 2015

All of that gear is designed to sit out on the grid for decades hopefully returning its

value in improved grid efficiencies and new capabilities over time But what if a utility

could move its networked sensors from one section of the grid to another testing

each out discovering its inefficiencies and fixing them and then move on

Thatrsquos the idea behind Awesense Wireless a Vancouver Canada-based startup founded in 2009 thatrsquos landed some significant utilities as customers

including hometown Fortis BC andBrazilrsquos ELO Sistemas Electronicos late last year

Awesense which announced last month that it raised an undisclosed round of funding has mainly deployed as a turnkey service to date selling utilities

its equipment and training workers to go out and deploy and manage the system On Monday it launched a service-based version of the business

which will allow utilities to pay for the deployment via a revenue-sharing agreement -- and potentially allow the startup to expand to customers that

might be leery of investing in all the gear upfront

The company already has one US utility with approximately 34000 meters and 1800 miles of lines using senseNET under just such a service contract

CEO Mischa Steiner-Jovic said in a phone interview Itrsquos also working with utilities in Malaysia Turkey Bulgaria and the Czech Republic which plan to

begin trials in the first quarter of this year

ldquoThe distribution portion of the grid is the most inefficient portion of the gridrdquo Steiner-Jovic said Today utilities use antiquated methodology to find these

losses based on math that tries to get around the lack of data he said ldquoWersquove automated the entire process for them and added a lot of technologyrdquo

he said ldquoIn one or two days they can identify where the loss is occurring as opposed to weeks and months of analysisrdquo

Awesensersquos senseNET system combines line sensor devices which can be dropped onto distribution cables by utility workers using so-called ldquohot-stickrdquo

methods -- no climbing poles and rewiring grid circuitry required A typical project might include several hundred such sensors put out over the course of

a few days and connected via the companyrsquos own 900-megahertz band mesh networking

Once theyrsquore up there the devices self-network and draw back tons of data on power quality which feeds into the senseNET software suite that helps

identify key inefficiencies Those can include technical losses such as worn-out transformers or sections of current experiencing phase problems -- but it

can also include so-called ldquonon-technicalrdquo losses which is a fancy term for power theft

Awesense first tested its system with utility Fortis BC and while it hasnrsquot officially named BC Hydro as a customer it did win a $40000 sustainability

prize from British Columbiarsquos biggest utility in 2011 The company is also working with unnamed advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) vendors to

integrate its data into their systems Steiner-Jovic said though he didnrsquot name the partners involved Both Fortis BC and BC Hydro are using Cisco and

Itron for their smart meter deployments


Many of the utilities working with Awesense are rolling the costs into their grid operations and management budgets he added -- a move that allows

utilities to avoid having to make a rate case for capital investments Thatrsquos a testament to the fact that deploying sensors to gather data then moving

them on to the next section of the grid is a lot cheaper than installing a lot of permanent sensors on all those portions of the grid Just how much

cheaper Steiner-Jovic didnrsquot say though he described the cost as a fraction of what would be required for a full-blown DA deployment

Itrsquos an interesting approach to a problem that utilities are only just beginning to tackle The World Bank estimates that $202 billion worth of electricity

generated is lost per year due to technical failures or theft Some emerging economies such as India and Brazil can see those losses rise as high as 30

percent to 40 percent -- but North America which has a minimal power theft problem in comparison still loses about $6 billion a year to ldquoenergy

diversionrdquo according to World Bank figures

British Columbia in particular suffers from power stolen to fuel illegal marijuana grow operations with estimates of the resulting power loss ranging from

$12 million in 2003 to $100 million in 2010 Interestingly one key problem in proving such theft figures is the lack of data of the auditable quality that

Awesensersquos system delivers -- making the smart grid a tool in courts of law as well as in the utility control room

Article and a cloud to quarrel appetite theft

Author Chrish Owell


Utilities call appetite burglary mdash like when an indoor pot plantation taps directly into a high voltage line for a super splendid

lights mdash a ldquonon-technical lossrdquo or a ldquocommercial lossrdquo Itrsquos a bizarrely paltry tenure to report thefts that cost utilities billions of

dollars in waste a year around a world For example Canadian focus BC Hydro has estimated that itrsquos losing a intolerable

$100 million any year from appetite theft

That confidence problem is what a immature Canadian startup called Awesense has emerged to tackle The company

founded behind in late 2009 has grown a product that uses appetite line sensors connected by a wireless filigree network

total with a cloud-based application Utility workers can use a combo to remotely guard and learn sum about how many

appetite their companies are indeed distributing contra how many appetite is being totalled by their billing systems In other

words ldquohow many income theyrsquore losingrdquo as Awesense owner and CEO Mischa Steiner-Jovic explains it

Awesensersquos record is a mobile resolution mdash focus workers clamp on a appetite line sensors wherever they think burglary is happening and if no

burglary is being rescued they can simply pierce a network to another partial of a grid The sensor nodes emanate a ad-hoc filigree network among

themselves (via a 915 rope in North America for all we wireless spectrum geeks out there)

The collateral responsibility of a networks are low adequate that Awesense has now

motionless to start offered burglary showing as a service Awesense will implement

a record for utilities for no upfront cost and afterwards take a cut of a income saved

Steiner-Jovic says over a past few years theyrsquove satisfied that therersquos been a lot of

seductiveness from utilities for a theft-detection product though that focus budgets

are mostly times tiny and rigid

In further to flourishing a burglary detection-as-a-service this year Awesense is

anticipating to grow a list of general customers where appetite burglary is a large

issue Currently it has business (itrsquos not disclosing a names other than Fortis BC) in

Canada a US and Latin America and itrsquos looking to expand some-more into Latin

America as good

as Asia Pacific and

Europe India has some of a top burglary waste in a world with tighten to 30 percent of

a appetite in a nation mislaid to burglary (check out some photos of a crazy jerry-rigged

appetite grids of Old Delhi) The former Soviet Union has roughly 50 percent Brazil is

during 15 percent

To date Awesense has been mostly bootstrapped and only lifted a ldquoseven figurerdquo turn

from angels final Summer Steiner-Jovic says a association could be meddlesome in

lifting a try turn in a destiny to grow a business Applying IT tech to a appetite grid and

Article A start-up fight thieves energy and illegal connections to the electricity network

Author Bernard Neumeister


Billions of dollars of electricity is stolen each year by people who draw on power lines to get free energy for their

homes businesses and more to their operations to their operations in pot of growing indoors This is an ongoing

global problem is expected to worsen as demand for energy grows

Awesense a Canadian start-up that has remained largely unknown since its founding in 2009 has launched a service to help

reduce the loss of energy utilities and recover revenue lost by theft overloading of transformers and other failures equipment

The company has developed a system called the SenseNET which combines hardware product data analysis networking and advanced monitoring to

identify energy losses from equipment failures and power bypass (such as theft) caused by meter tampering or illegal connections to the son

How does it work

The heart of the system is SenseNET monitor a sensor network that clips on transmission lines and distribution The public employees can establish a

sensor network in less than two minutes with a hot stick or truck to wirelessly control this particular section of the electrical network via a laptop or tablet

in real time The sensors that are connected by a wireless mesh network can help the utility to identify inefficiencies and energy theft Once the problem

has been resolved the utility can move the sensor to another section of the grid

The operator of Canadian utility Fortis BC uses sensor technology A service of American public service

anonymously about 34000 meters and 2900 km of power lines SenseNET deployed the system via a

service contract Public services in Malaysia Turkey Bulgaria and the Czech Republic will also begin testing

the service in the first quarter of the year

In the past Awesense sold its technology as a turnkey system for utilities Now the company sells as a

service that does not require for the public service to make a initial capital investment Once the public

service sign and begins to use the service Awesense is paid via a percentage of revenue recovered

A global problem

These revenues collected could be considerable In India about 27 of the electricity produced is siphoned off by the theft which costs the distribution

companies in the country an estimated $ 16 billion per year total according to the Central Electricity Authority in India Globally 202 billion dollars of

electricity is lost each year due to technical failures or theft according to estimates by the World Bank

Energy theft is also a problem in developed countries Diversion of energy such as illegal connection to a power

line cost US utilities an estimated 6 billion per year which makes electricity 3rd product after the most stolen card

data credit and cars according to data provided by Awesense


Article Utilities no longer need to buy SenseNet to benefit from it

Author


Awesense is offering a new service-based business model for its SenseNet product that helps utilities cut power losses and recover lost revenue from

theft transformer overloads and other problems No upfront investment is needed the Canadian firm added

British Columbia IOU Fortis BC is using the technology now Awesense said Utilities in Bulgaria the Czech Republic Malaysia and Turkey plan to start

trials of the SenseNet service this quarter it added and an unnamed US utility with about 34000 meters is deploying SenseNet under the service

contract deal

Before adding the service-based approach Awesense sold SenseNet to utilities The new deal compensates the firm through a percentage of verified

recovered revenue or a fee

SenseNet is ldquoa comprehensive economical solution combining hardware data analytics networking and advanced power monitoring for identifying

characterizing and verifying power losses from equipment failures as well as power diversion caused by meter tampering or wire lsquotappingrdquo the firm said

The system serves as a planning tool for grid operators and power providers helping customers pinpoint potential vulnerabilities before major losses or

failures occur

The World Bank estimated $202 billion of power generated is lost per-year due to technical failures or theft Awesense said citing India as a prime

example In Ireland power theft grew by 50 since 2009 the firm said

In the Brazilian capitol of Rio de Janeiro some experts have said the power lost each year to theft ldquocould provide power to 62 million homesrdquo Marcos

Rizzo VP of business development of ELO Sistemas Eletronicos said in prepared remarks ELO is collaborating with Awesense in Latin American

markets Awesense said

SenseNet monitors can characterize the power use at up to 100 locations with 99 accuracy Awesense added


Article Awesense Releases SenseNET Service for Economically Reducing Power Losses Due to Theft and

Equipment Failure

Author Editor


Awesense has announced a new service offering based on its SenseNET solution that will help utilities curb power losses and recover lost revenue due

to theft transformer overloads and other problems without any upfront investment The SenseNET system is a comprehensive economical solution

combining hardware data analytics networking and advanced power monitoring for identifying characterizing and verifying power losses from

equipment failures as well as power diversion caused by meter tampering or wire ldquotappingrdquo

The companyrsquos technology is currently in use helping North American customers like Fortis BC and others recover tens of millions of dollars in avoidable

power losses The SenseNET system also serves as a planning tool for grid operators and power providers providing customers the opportunity to

pinpoint potential vulnerabilities before major losses or failures occur

While Awesense to date has sold SenseNET technology systems to utilities the new SenseNET Service will permit utilities to obtain the benefits of the

technology through a managed service offering Under the new program Awesense will collaborate with utility customers on designing implementing

and managing loss reductions initiatives Awesense will then be compensated through a percentage of verified recovered revenue or through a fee

Utilities do not need to make independent capital investments or dedicate funds from operating budgets the SenseNET Service effectively becomes a

supplemental source of revenue

A US utility with approximately 34000 meters and 1800 miles of energized lines has already begun to deploy the SenseNET system under a service

contract The utility loses an estimated 5 percent of its generated power to losses Utilities in Malaysia Turkey Bulgaria and the Czech Republic will

begin trials of the SenseNET Service in the first quarter of 2013 while other utilities are beginning to evaluate the service offering

ldquoUnanticipated power losses are a growing global problem Utilities generate billions of dollars of power every year that they donrsquot get compensated for

and that never gets to their customersrdquo said Awesense CEO Mischa Steiner-Jovic ldquoUnanticipated power losses and electricity theft also cause fires

power shortages injuries among other problems This is not a victimless crimerdquo

The World Bank estimates that $202 billion worth of electricity generated is lost annually due to technical failures or theft In India approximately 27

percent of the electricity generated gets siphoned off through theft while the peak power demand on average exceeds supply by 9 percent according to

the Ministry of Energy Equipment failures and power diversion are often the root cause of Indiarsquos chronic widespread blackouts such as the power

failures of August 2012 that left 640 million residents without power Power loss cut Indiarsquos economic growth by an estimated 12 percent annually

according to government statistics

Even in the US and Europe losses are staggeringly high energy diversion costs US utilities and their customers an estimated $6 billion a year in the

US making energy the third most stolen commodity right behind credit card information and cars The challenges in catching perpetratorsmdashwhich can

range from individuals to sophisticated marijuana growing operationsndashoften prevents utilities and law enforcement from taking adequate steps to stop it

In Ireland power theft has increased by 50 percent since 2009

SenseNET changes the dynamic by greatly reducing the capital equipment and personnel needed to stop power losses while at the same time giving

grid operators and utilities an enhanced ability to find power losses The heart of the system is the SenseNET Monitor a highly accurate networked

sensor that clips onto transmission and distribution lines SenseNET Monitors can characterize the power consumption at up to 100 locations at the

same time with a 99 percent plus accuracy Field crews can attach one in less than two minutes with a hot stick or truck SenseNET Monitors can also

be deployed underground

TheSenseNET Suite is a complimentary software platform for analyzing data and managing ongoing operations SensNET Prioritizer detects

abnormalities and prioritizes loss recovery efforts it mines field data along with data from meter data management and billing systems SenseNET

CORE meanwhile is employed to visualize data generate reports identify situations requiring immediate attention and exchange information with

SenseNET Monitors networking equipment and other components


ldquoThe electricity lost in Rio de Janeiro alone annually could provide power to 62 million homes by some estimates Providing effective solutions to reduce

losses and protect revenue is part of our strategy for Brazil and other Latin American countriesrdquo said Marcos Rizzo vice president of business

development of ELO Sistemas Eletronicos which is collaborating with Awesense in Latin American markets

form of upfront investment

The SenseNET solution on which Awesensersquos new service offering is based is a comprehensive yet economical system that combines the power of

data analytics hardware networking and latest monitoring technology to identify characterize and verify loss of power from equipment failure The

system also identifies and verifies power diversion caused due to wiretapping or meter tampering

Story continues below

The SenseNET solution by Awesense is currently deployed in North America helping clients like Fortis BC and others utilities to efficiently recover ten

million dollars in ldquoavoidable power lossrdquo due to theft or equipment failure

This revolutionary system by Awesense has also been designed as an effective planning tool for power providers and grid operators enabling them to

accurately identify the potential susceptibilities before any major failure or power loss occurs

Awesense has deployed SenseNET technology only to utilities till date but the latest SenseNET service will allow the utilities to access the core benefits

of this technology via ldquomanaged service offeringrdquo

Talking about power loss Mischa Steiner-Jovic the Chief Executive Officer of Awesense stated that the unexpected power loss is fast emerging as a

major problem Despite investing billions of dollars in power every year the utilities and power providers donrsquot get compensated for same as it never

reaches the customers There are increasing instances of power theft and electricity loss in addition to other major problems such as power shortage

fire and injuries ndash ldquothis is indeed a crimerdquo added Mischa

Article Canadian startup puts a collection agency spin on stopping electricity theft

Author Liz Enbysk


The idea that an estimated $2022 billion in electricity generated around

the world each year is lost to energy theft or equipment failure may be hard

to fathom But a Vancouver BC startup that develops technologies to

reduce grid power losses puts it into more manageable scenarios

According to Awesense

Energy diversion costs US utilities an estimated $6 billion

annually ndash making energy the third most stolen commodity right behind

credit card information and cars

Power loss and equipment failure are so out of control in India that government statistics suggest it cuts the countrys economic growth 12

annually

The amount of electricity lost in Rio de Janeiro each year could provide power to 62 million homes by some estimates says an ELO Sistemas

Electronicos VP

I talked with Awesense founder and CEO Mischa Steiner-Jovic who uses words like astronomical and almost unbelievable when he describes the

amount of money utilities ndash and their customers ndash lose each year

Utilities generate billions of dollars of power every year that they dont get compensated for and never gets to their customers he says And those

power losses are passed along adding $50 to $200 to customer electricity bills each year

So as Steiner-Jovic puts it its not a victimless crime especially if you factor in the fires power outages and injuries that can result

But catching culprits ndash who may be individuals trying to avoid high electric bills or sophisticated marijuana grow operations ndash can be challenging

And all of that is what intrigued the engineer in Steiner-Jovic who founded Awesense Wireless in 2009 to solve the power loss problem Awesense

prototyped its SenseNET solution with Fortis BC in 2010 and then started selling it to other utilities We told you last month in a story onenergy theft

going from bad to worse about the companys partnership with ELO Sistemas in Latin America

SenseNET combines hardware data analytics networking and advanced power monitoring to identify power

losses from both equipment failures and diversion caused by meter tampering or line tapping Basically

sensors are clamped onto distribution lines using a hot stick or truck and each sensor can monitor power

consumption at up to 100 locations at the same time So a utility might deploy several hundred sensors

which can then be moved around to cover a broad area Communication is via a self-creating wireless mesh

network

Steiner-Jovic will tell you that SenseNET is quick and easy to deploy with rapid ROI He points to one

customer that achieved payback in a week And now it gets even more interesting

Awesense recently announced a no-cost SenseNET-as-a-service offering that has the company collaborating

with utilities to design implement and manage loss reduction initiatives Awesense is paid through a

percentage of recovered revenue sort of a collection agency model for utilities that dont have the budget or wherewithal to tackle the problem

otherwise Or as Awesense sees it the SenseNET service becomes a new revenue source for utilities One US utility is already deploying it and

Steiner-Jovic says trials are set to begin this quarter in Europe and Asia

Article Turkey prepares to hand $5bn to US biz for intelligent electricity

Author Bill Ray


Turkey will spend $5bn over the next two years creating a smart grid to cope with increased energy consumption and buying plenty of American kit with

which to do it

The US consulate in Istanbul put out the figure Bloomberg notes as it promotes a two-day conference on the subject The conference itself is

sponsored by the US Trade and Development Agency which will see US companies pitching intelligent networks to Turkish utilities and government

reps as well as discussing the regulatory environment which will be necessary to meet Turkeys energy needs

This isnt just about Smart Meters which only manage consumption in cloud-cuckoo land where everyone uses less power thanks to an LCD screen

smiling at them this is about generating power in the right place and delivering across the country at the right time while making sure no one steals it en

route

The latter is such a problem that a company like Awesense is now offering to trace thefts for free in exchange for a cut of the saved revenue Awesense

is a US startup which uses clamps placed on electricity lines measuring current flow by induction and capable of creating a dynamic mesh (in the ISM

band at 915MHz) to get the data back to the office Check the flow at two ends of a wire - and if the loss is higher than predicted youve found a thief

Just move the clamps and youll know where they are

Awesense is already involved in Turkey but is typical of the way an intelligent electricity grid can be more efficient without relying on consumers to use

less Last year Turkish energy consumption rise by more than 5 per cent while production only grew 42 per cent so better solutions are needed

But creating a Smart Grid will mean working together and the Istanbul skyline is (as far as your correspondent is aware) the only one in the world

graced with multiple TV transmission masts because the broadcasters couldnt come to a sharing agreement which bodes badly for cooperative

agreements

American companies will have high hopes of selling kit into Turkey and following the historical route into the Middle East and beyond - Turkey will make

an excellent showcase for what a smart grid can achieve assuming it can achieve it reg

SenseNET used by power utilities around to world to

detect power theft | Dominic Schaefer

By Nelson BennettTue Feb 12 2013 1201am PST

Power utilities around the world lose an estimate $200

billion annually to electricity theft and equipment failure

That might explain the growth of Vancouver startup

Awesense which developed a mobile sensor that power

companies can connect to power lines to identify power

losses on their grids

The companyrsquos headcount has grown to 16 from two in

2009 and it has landed contracts with major power

companies in Canada the US and South America

RewardLoop which developed a QR-code based

customer reward system has seen similar growth It has

also struck a major partnership deal with Epson which will embed RewardLoop in its next generation of printers for point-of-sales systems 85 of which

use the Epson printer language The printers will be able to calculate sales and rewards which the customer can collect by scanning a QR printed on

the receipt

Awesense and RewardLoop are both alumni of an accelerator program at Wavefront which is doing a bit of accelerating of its own

The wireless accelerator recently took on additional floor space at Guinness Tower on West Hastings Street to accommodate an expansion to allow for

more high-tech startups to participate in its programs like BC Innovation Councilrsquos venture accelerator

The expansion opens up space for up to 175 entrepreneurs Wavefront plans to graduate 50 startups over the next 30 months

The venture accelerator program at Wavefront provides participants with office space mentoring and access to a wireless lab for testing a range of

hardware and software It also helps participants access foreign markets and connects them with investors

ldquoWhat we got out of the program was a good path to commercializationrdquo said Awesense co-founder and CEO Mischa Steiner-Jovic who spent a year in

Wavefrontrsquos accelerator program

ldquoWe were well on our way to closing deals here in Canada but we had nothing in the pipeline We didnrsquot know how we were going to expand We are

[now] an international company and have product in Canada the US South America and Brazil [and] wersquoll be in Europerdquo

Because of Wavefrontrsquos connections investors take companies that have been referred to them by the organization seriously

ldquoWhen we phone a targeted investor and make an introduction itrsquos treated differently than when that small company calls directlyrdquo said Wavefront CEO

James Maynard ldquoIt set us up for successrdquo said RewardLoop co-founder Nigel Malkin ldquoThey made introductions that led to virtually all of our funding

They spend every waking hour trying to figure out how they can help us Wersquove raised over $1 million in financingrdquo


Article Energy Theft Goes Global

Author Sarah Battaglia


When you hear the phrase ldquoelectricity theftrdquo you may automatically picture places like India or Brazil where the number of power outages is

astounding Unfortunately electricity thieves can be found in nearly every country across the globe including the US Whether itrsquos performing illegal

hookups tampering with meters or stealing copper wire from substations over $200 billion in electricity is lost each year due to equipment failure or

electricity thieves In the US alone this crime costs roughly $6 billion annually which makes it the third most stolen commodity following credit card

information and vehicles

Reducing and eventually eliminating this unlawful activity is one reason why utilities want to install more advanced power meters Recording consumer

data on a regular basis will assist utilities in detecting any unusual activity therefore decreasing the amount of money utilities lose and abolishing

additional price hikes for customers

Brazilian utilities are improving their smart meter technology and working to install these devices on the outside of homes or on top of electricity poles as

opposed to inside residentsrsquo homes Last year a Bloomberg article covering this topic stated ldquoThe meters can detect unusually heavy demand which

may signal an illegal hookup They can also be used to shut off service to households and businesses that donrsquot pay their bills The devices remove the

human factor from the equation so customers can no longer collude with dishonest meter readers to cheat the power companyrdquo

Awesense a Vancouver-based company dedicated to confronting energy theft is taking another approach to put an end to this crime According to

Mischa Steiner-Jovic CEO of Awesense ldquoUtilities generate billions of dollars of power every year that they donrsquot get compensated for and never gets to

their customersrdquo

The companyrsquos theft-detection system features a simple device that has the ability to identify where electricity is being diverted A small sensor can be

attached to power lines to measure the amount of current flowing through The sensor will calculate electricity consumption and deliver the data back to

Awesense through their application called SenseNET Once a comparison of billed electricity and actual consumption is analyzed the software can then

determine if and where theft is occurring

The company is working with utilities located in Turkey Bulgaria Malaysia and the Czech Republic underlining the fact that electricity theft is becoming

a global problem that continues to get worse Recent incidents have been recorded in a number of different countries Over the last three years

Irelandrsquos major energy supplier has noticed a 50 percent growth in offenders tampering with meter boxes Last year a man was sentenced to prison

after stealing copper wire from a PECO substation It took about two years for a woman in Connecticut to be caught stealing over $3000 worth of

electricity Ninety people were suspected as participants of a scheme to help restaurants in Hong Kong lower their utility bills which eventually cost the

utility millions

These are just a few examples of how electricity thieves can be located all over the world and how extreme this type of crime can be Aside from

damage to utilities electricity theft is a dangerous activity Tampering with live power lines may result in severe shock fire and even death ldquoNot only is

energy theft illegal it is a safety threat- to those who tamper with electric utility equipment to the general public and to utility workers who can be injured

or killed by hazards left behind by the culpritrdquo stated Chuck Walls vice president of customer financial operations of ComEd Some may think electricity

theft is a victimless crime but judging by Wallsrsquo statement and the effects on innocent customers that cannot be farther from the truth

Article 3 Factors That Could Make or Break the Secondary Transformer Monitor Market

Author Ben Kellison

Date March 5 2013

Despite rosy forecasts for secondary transformer monitors major threats to adoption are on the horizon

GTM Research expects the market for secondary transformer monitors to expand rapidly starting in 2014 as technology pilots are concluded

Right now secondary monitoring vendors are quickly inking public and private deals with other smart grid vendors to position their products for expected

future growth -- enabled in part by the wide deployment of field area networks and the recent availability of cheaper AMI network interface cards

Some examples include

AMI vendors including Echelon Itron Landis+Gyr and Silver Spring Networks are partnering with transformer monitoring vendors to ensure

interoperability and increase the potential value for existing customers

Additional negotiation and at least one deal has been brought to our attention between monitoring vendors and transformer vendors to embed monitors

within new secondary transformers

These enabling factors coupled with increasing distributed generation penetration the growing importance of asset management and the expanding

popularity of distribution automation applications are providing the necessary elements for the secondary monitoring market to grow to more than a half

billion dollars by 2018 before stabilizing in 2019

It all seems very rosy for players like AmbientABB Current Elster Grid 2020 GridSense IUS Technologies and newcomer Telliformer in the mid- to

long-term However there are risks that could significantly change the prospects for this market There are three factors that could create

opportunity threaten to significantly slow growth or provide major opportunities for savvy vendors

1 The current competition from other sensors (including AMI and line sensors)

This first one is obvious as the lines from the casual observer between LV and MV sensors often blur together as many of the high-level benefits are the

same The brewing low-voltagemedium- voltage sensor battle in the United States continues to heat up with new entrants like Awesense Grid Sentry

and South Korean IUS Technologies entering the market over the last year More than twenty vendors are currently competing to stake claim on a

market that continues to lack answers to key questions including the optimal penetration of sensors on a distribution line the number of independent

sensors that are required if the equipment on feeders is intelligent and the amount additional value that can be generated from sensors that are more

accurate more precise poll more frequently than a rival or include more powerful software or processing power

2 Improving analytics from soft grid (eg GRIDiant) AMI (eg Silver Spring Networks) and MDMS (eg eMeter) providers can reduce the value of

transformer monitors through the creation of virtual meters in the short and medium term

Virtual meters can estimate key health parameters at different points on the grid (such as the secondary transformer) to estimate the stress on an asset

the quality of power the outage status of a device and assist with identifying theft Widespread acceptance of these applications rather than direct

measures could strip potential marginal hardware sales from the market

3 Competition or cooperation with combined solid-state monitoring and control devices in the medium and long term

The slow conversion of control equipment to solid-state components from wire-and-magnet equipment will begin to occur in the next five years If

demand develops for these devices to be deployed in a distributed fashion the likely inclusion of monitoring and communications capabilities could

provide an OEM opportunity for low-voltage sensor and communications manufacturers to gain market share However by opening up another revenue

and value stream versus standalone sensors it could shut them out altogether Early indications point to Varentec and Gridco Systems challenging

traditional players ABB GE and Siemens in this space The secondary monitoring market is beginning to look promising as IOUs are starting pilots with

greater frequency and prices on economy vendor offerings have fallen to as low as $750 a unit However significant challenges from software vendors

and disruptive 21st-century solid-state hardware vendors will continue to grow for a market expected to exceed $500 million annually in 2018
