Enabling AMI 2.0 and
Grid Edge Intelligence
How Wi-Fi HaLow can deliver the vision for future intelligent energy management
The global energy landscape is evolving fast—fueled by the adoption of rooftop solar, battery storage, electric vehicles, and home electrification. As energy becomes more distributed, variable, and data-intensive, tomorrow’s smart grids demand more than first generation Advanced Meter Infrastructure (AMI) systems can offer.
This whitepaper explores how Wi-Fi HaLow enables a smarter, more resilient energy infrastructure by:
- Supporting the exponential growth in smart meter data volumes
- Enabling localized energy management and demand response at the Grid Edge
- Reducing operational costs in the Neighborhood Area Network (NAN)
- Supporting behind-the-meter appliance control and demand-side optimization
- Enhancing network security with WPA3 and standards-based interoperability
- Powering new intelligent energy applications and service innovation
