Revolutionary Electricity Distribution and Grid Resiliency

Introduction:
In today’s rapidly evolving world, access to reliable and uninterrupted electricity has become a necessity. However, the challenges faced in last-mile electricity distribution pose significant hurdles in achieving universal access to electricity. In this regard, TekUncorked has emerged as a pioneering force, committed to revolutionizing the electricity distribution landscape. With a vision to facilitate reliable, outage-free electricity for all, TekUncorked has developed the LVIoT (Low Voltage Internet of Things) platform to detect grid anomalies, forecast failures, detect pilferage, leakages, theft and inefficiencies in electricity distribution networks.

Fostering Reliability and Outage-Free Electricity:
TekUncorked’s LVIoT platform represents a breakthrough in the realm of last-mile electricity distribution. By leveraging advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), the platform enables real-time monitoring, analysis, and management of the electricity grid. This empowers distribution companies with valuable insights into potential risks, allowing them to proactively address issues and prevent outages. By taking a preventive approach, TekUncorked aims to foster reliable and uninterrupted electricity supply, enhancing the overall customer experience.

Tackling Power Theft:
Power theft is a pervasive issue that plagues electricity distribution networks, leading to significant revenue losses and compromised grid stability. TekUncorked recognizes the gravity of this problem and has made it a core mission to combat power theft through their LVIoT platform. By deploying advanced analytics and machine learning algorithms, the platform identifies anomalous energy consumption patterns that often indicate power theft. This actionable intelligence enables swift intervention and effective countermeasures, ensuring that electricity is utilized fairly and efficiently.

Reducing Grid Losses and Enhancing Efficiencies:
TekUncorked’s commitment to reducing grid losses goes hand in hand with its dedication to enhancing overall grid efficiencies.
Through their AIIoT (Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things)-based LVIoT platform, TekUncorked enables distribution companies to optimize the grid efficiencies. By closely monitoring key parameters like demand load, phase imbalances, power quality, grid equipment health and more the platform provides insights about inefficiencies and opportunity to reduce grid losses. This not only minimizes wastage but also improves the overall stability and reliability of the electricity grid.

Ensuring Safety and Protection:
The safety of personnel and infrastructure is of paramount importance in the electricity distribution domain.
Through continuous monitoring of the grid equipment and environment around it, risks and threats like fire hazard, flooding, over-heating are detected and real time alerts are issued to the field personnel.
Besides through automation actions supported by the platform, breakers can be tripped to disconnect or switch loads for protection and safety purposes.

Conclusion:
TekUncorked’s relentless efforts in addressing the challenges of last-mile electricity distribution and power theft are commendable. By harnessing the potential of the LVIoT platform, they are spearheading a transformative change in the industry. Through their commitment to reducing grid losses, enhancing efficiencies, and ensuring safety, TekUncorked is playing a vital role in facilitating reliable electricity access for all. With the electricity loads set to increase by 40-50% over the next decade, a platform like LVIoT shall become more and more critical for not only driving grid efficiencies but driving socio-economic impact. Huge amount of data flows through the grid in the form of electricity carrying vital insights about consumer behaviours, consumption patterns and demand trends to enable forecasting the future and hence planning enhancements and upgrades in the grid. Summarizing, intelligence and analytics from LVIoT platform enables predictive maintenance of the grid, addresses problems of the here and now and enables planning for the future. As they continue to innovate and evolve, TekUncorked sets an inspiring example for the entire electricity distribution sector, paving the way for a future where power distribution is efficient, secure, and inclusive for all.
