New Jersey-based technology company Petra Solar has unveiled a smart energy platform aimed at helping utilities with an easy solution to manage a wide range of smart grid applications for increasing operational efficiency.


The platform, IntelliView, combines smart grid network infrastructure management with renewable energy management services. That means utilities can use it for managing, monitoring and troubleshooting their energy system.

This model, according to Petra Solar, allows utilities to focus on other key functions of their operations, while deriving full benefits from their investment.

The platform provides critical analysis of smart grid application data enabling remote command and control of large distributed energy systems. Once the platform is deployed, users have a dashboard view of all elements of the communications network. Alerts, performance summaries, and mesh networking diagnostics are provided for problem identification and resolution.

“IntelliView uniquely combines smart grid network infrastructure management with renewable energy management services for our worldwide utility partners,” said Dr. Shihab Kuran, President and CEO of Petra Solar. “The robust platform is scalable to future smart grid applications, including energy efficiency, energy conservation, grid reliability and smart microgrids.”

The major advantage of the platform is it gives a centralized view of a virtual power plant, so the users can foresee potential outages and they can also pre-estimate peak hour requirements.

IntelliView’s modular design creates the platform for additional data-analytics modules, coupling critical network management with smart energy applications.
