1. World’s most reliable power line communications
Connected Street Lights and IOT
Saving Cities Power and Maintenance Costs

2. Our Mission: We Make Smart Cities Smarter
We address one of the world’s largest problems:
Electricity to a billion emerging middle class without
destroying the environment
– Fewer Power Plants. Reduced CO2 Emissions
– Efficient Cities
We make Smart Cities Smarter with networked street
lights and then uses that network to connect IOT sensors
throughout the city for data analytics

• Originally a chip
company via
Semitech, gridComm
provides the chips
that enable comm
over the power grid,
connecting utilities to
power consumers.
2012
• Funded by G2V, NRF
and SPRING TECS
gridComm creates
module hardware and
adaptive control
software to enable
communications to
monitor power
utilities, including
digital electric meters.
2014
• gridComm creates
turnkey solutions and
end-to-end systems
that regulate, monitor
and control power
usage over an entire
smart grid. Street
lighting management
software & hardware
used in key projects.
