We are pleased to share that our team recently held a highly productive technical exchange meeting with the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and the Operations & Maintenance (O&M) management team of State Grid Brazil Holding (SGBH). The discussion centered on advancing the safety, intelligence and resilience of Brazil’s high-voltage (HV) transmission infrastructure.
Key Topics Discussed
The two sides conducted an in-depth review of the most pressing operational pain points across Brazil’s transmission network:
- Remote intelligent monitoring for high-voltage transmission projects, covering real-time visibility of line conditions and asset health;
- Robust communication solutions for both field devices and inspection teams operating in signal-free / remote corridors, where conventional cellular coverage is unavailable;
- Extreme-weather operational challenges, including structural risks such as tower tilting and deformation caused by severe wind events;
- Third-party damage prevention along transmission rights-of-way (ROW), including encroachment, construction activity and other external threats to corridor integrity.
Strategic Significance
Reaching this level of technical alignment with SGBH — a cornerstone of Brazil’s power transmission sector — represents a major milestone in our strategic expansion into the Brazilian market. We look forward to moving these conversations from dialogue to deliverables, and to partnering with SGBH on building safer, smarter and more resilient transmission grids across Brazil.
