GOAL: Florida Power & Light needed a way to ensure efficient use of power by select C&I customers. This entailed researching energy consumption traits during peak and non-peak periods and providing power quality and outage management notifications to customers.

SOLUTION: A3 SmartMeter, SmartSynch Transaction Management System (TMS), and the GPRS network. SmartSynch created an interactive Power Quality feature for the A3, which includes low- and high-voltage events, three-phase outage reporting and MIVS events.

RESULT: FP&L retrieves daily load profile and power quality data, including usage and instrumentation profiling, for its largest C&I accounts on an as-needed basis. SmartMeters provide real-time alerts, such as outage notifications, enabling minimal service interruptions for customers. Customers may conduct real-time reads via e-mail interface with SmartSynch’s Transaction Management System. Power Quality functionality is a revenue source that FP&L actively markets to customers.
