Noveda Technologies, a Branchburg, New Jersey-based energy monitoring systems manufacturer, announced Wednesday that it has entered into a contract with the state's oldest and largest electric utility: the Public Service Electric and Gas Company.
With PSE&G on track to install over 80 megawatts of New Jersey solar installations - including a major distributed network based on streetlight poles - the need for a reliable monitoring system is clear.
'PSE&G's leadership in renewable energy gives us an opportunity to leverage our core technology and innovation. This approach to use real-time monitoring technology is another example of PSE&G's proactive strategy to build a robust renewable energy portfolio,' said Govi Rao, the chief executive officer of Noveda Technologies.
Noveda will provide hardware, software and operational support so that the utility can monitor its solar installations remotely. Monitoring technology allows utilities - or individuals - to protect and maximize their solar investments.
According to a press release from Noveda, the first project covered by the contract with PSE&G is scheduled to go live in the next two weeks.
