Problem
Municipalities and utilities face challenges in managing and optimizing their existing infrastructure, including streetlights, utility poles, and distribution transformers. Traditional infrastructure often lacks the connectivity and intelligence needed to reduce energy costs, enhance public safety, improve grid resiliency, and support the deployment of new technologies like 5G and electric vehicle charging.
Solution
Ubicquia provides a smart infrastructure platform that transforms existing streetlights, utility poles, and distribution transformers into intelligent assets. Their solutions integrate light control, video-based AI, public WiFi, 5G connectivity, and grid monitoring capabilities. By leveraging existing infrastructure, Ubicquia enables cities and utilities to reduce energy consumption, improve public safety with license plate recognition and street analytics, accelerate 5G deployments, enhance grid resiliency through distribution transformer monitoring, and monitor air quality.
