Recently, Landis+Gyr announced that Guam Power Authority (GPA), the electric power provider for the U.S. Territory of Guam, chose the Gridstream RF advanced metering solution for its project to deploy smart grid technology.

Gridstream from Landis+Gyr assists people in maximizing the effectiveness of their energy management assets with the help of the seamless combination and flow of technology and information.

The service gives users access to a complete range of advanced multi-energy products and systems, whether the users require the latest smart metering and network technology or personal energy management tools.

GPA is looking to install more than 52,000 advanced meters and Gridstream network components by 2014. For the majority of its residential customers, the utility will install E-350 FOCUS AX-SD meters with combined service switch and ZigBee abilities.


In the future, the Gridstream RF network will offer a backbone for possible communication with other grid devices and home area network applications.

“We have been working directly with GPA over the past two years to help identify the ways Gridstream can meet their long-term needs," said Abe Ortega, VP of International Sales and Marketing at Landis+Gyr. "GPA will have many options for using smart grid solutions to impact customer service, improve efficiency and manage operating costs.”

The company also recently celebrated another key milestone, having officially built and shipped more than 10 million Focus AX meters in North America. The E-350 Focus AX is a solid-state meter platform that easily adapts to smart grid technologies and was launched by the company in 2007.
