Signed by President Obama in February 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act includes $4.5 billion specifically allocated for Smart Grid grants to transform the nation’s aging electricity grid.

A Smart Grid is an advanced system that incorporates widely distributed intelligent sensors and employs real-time communications to automatically sense and correct inefficiencies and disturbances on the electrical distribution system. CURRENT’s Smart Grid products help transform the existing grid into a self-healing, self-optimizing 21st century power system capable of supporting the wide spread use of renewables.
