Smart Grid
As the population grows and power infrastructure ages, grids and microgrids require dynamic monitoring and control systems that provide processing flexibility to scale distribution, optimize grid assets, and analyze grid performance.
NI control and measurement technology helps utilities and power systems engineers to create a smarter grid to improve grid integration of renewable energy sources, implement automated analytics, advance situation awareness, and improve overall energy efficiency. NI offers design tools, test systems, and embedded deployment platforms that give engineers the ability to rapidly explore new approaches, streamline discovery and production, and deploy their innovations in ruggedized measurement and control systems. NI-based solutions use open, customizable measurement tools to meet the unique needs of an industry filled with utility grids that rarely exhibit the same problems.
