| Company Description | Spirae, LLC provides comprehensive distributed energy resource management systems (DERMS) for utilities and real-time microgrid controls. Based in Fort Collins, Colorado, Spirae has developed, refined and validated its control platform and its menu of market-driven applications through numerous full scale and pilot projects in North America and Europe since 2002.
Spirae’s expertise has developed through application of many decades’ aggregate team experience in power systems analysis, controls, engineering, and software design. Spirae’s Wave® control platform provides a dynamically scalable architecture for integrating and managing high levels of renewable and distributed energy resources (DER) at the edge of the grid. | Prodea is the first company that delivered on the promise of the connected home while finally making a seamless connected life possible for everyone. The Prodea Residential Operating System (ROS?) is a unified platform of the Internet of Things that enables diverse Service Providers worldwide to rapidly and cost-effectively deliver autonomous, agnostic and easy to use connectivity and services between people, data and devices. Headquartered in Richardson, Texas, Prodea maintains additional offices in New York, Los Angeles, Mumbai, London, Dubai and Johannesburg. | Aeris is a cellular network designed and built exclusively for machines. Because it was made for machines, Aeris delivers the most reliable, flexible and efficient global cellular network for M2M data transmission available today. From Telematics to medical devices to remote machines, Aeris’ customers enjoy solutions tuned for high performance and mission-critical reliability. | Actility is an industry leader in LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) large scale infrastructure with ThingPark, the new generation standard-based IoT / M2M communication platform.
Actility’s ThingPark Wireless network provides LoRa / LoRaWAN long-range coverage for low-power sensors used in SmartCity, SmartBuilding and SmartFactory applications.
Actility also provides the ThingPark Cloud which provides big data storage for sensor data and exposes sensor function through an open API allowing developers to provide vertical applications on top of rolled out sensors.
To help vendors transform their sensors, Actility provides the ThingPark IoT platform which includes Embedded Software solutions and cloud solutions to help devices connect to innovative applications.
Year founded: 2010 | We are an IoT company that hitches technology to business outcomes. Our Kaa Enterprise IoT Platform doesn’t just boast technical functions but aims directly at the strategic goals for modern enterprises. In the scope of our products and solutions, we actually deliver comprehensive, sustainable business models empowered by IoT. This is what drives our clients’ success stories forward. | SIGFOX is the provider of dedicated cellular connectivity for the Internet of Things and Machine-to-Machine communications. The company’s network complements existing high-bandwidth systems by providing economical, energy-efficient two-way transmission of small quantities of data, thus lowering barriers to wide implementation of IoT and M2M solutions, and greatly extending the battery and service life of connected devices. SIGFOX‘s global network is deployed through the SIGFOX Network Operator? partnership program, with more than four hundred thousand square miles already covered. The company is headquartered in Labège, France, and has offices in Mountain View, Calif., and Madrid, Spain. |
| IoT Solutions | Spirae anticipates that distributed energy resources (DER) will play an ever larger role in the generation and management of electricity for customers all over the world. Spirae includes in the definition of DER, renewable generation sources such as wind and PV; energy storage devices such as flywheels, ice, and batteries; and controllable loads such as water heaters and HVAC systems. To manage these DER to respond to facility and system needs, a robust communications and control solution is needed.
Spirae’s Wave® control software platform was designed with exactly that purpose in mind – to be the operating system of DER. Spirae’s foundation in industrial controls, combined with an experienced team of power systems engineers, lays the ground for a software platform that is not only highly intelligent and functional, but also fast to deploy, scalable and flexible to implement new applications to drive business cases that emerge with the evolving marketplace. Spirae’s software platform makes use of processes that operate at three distinct levels to create a distributed and federated network of DER – the device level, the aggregation level, and the system level. Spirae’s Wave software uses standard industrial protocols, such as DNP3 and Modbus, to communicate with devices; or can interface via a Web Service. Communication between Wave software processes is over a secure middleware. The Wave software exchanges information as needed with enterprise level data systems such as SCADA and DMS.
Spirae has pioneered IoT-electric grid projects with up to 60 MW of DER under control and demonstrated functionality using the DER such as islanding, high renewable integration and frequency regulation, and market interface. With 15 years of experience in the field, Spirae is uniquely qualified as the provider of the DER Operating System. | IoT Service X-Change Platform
