TNBR, the wholly-owned research arm of Malaysian power utility Tenaga Nasional Berhad will collaborate with Universiti Tenaga Nasional (Uniten) to deploy the project at TNBR’s and Uniten campuses.
Trilliant will be deploying its multi-tiered 2.4 GHz RF mesh technology for both the neighborhood area network and wide area network.
Trilliant managing director for Asia Pacific Bryan Spear said, "We are thrilled to be working with TNBR, Uniten and Comintel to bring the industry’s most innovative AMI and smart grid communications solution to Malaysia."
Malaysia based system integrator Comintel will manage the project and will be responsible for the end-to-end system integration.
Trilliant said the implementation of smart grid technologies will reduce the nation’s dependence on natural gas and coal and help to withdraw from national electricity subsidies in the next four years.
