How is Comcast Smart Solutions working with Comcast to manage its operational effectiveness? We recently worked with our own data engineering facility in West Chester PA, deploying smart sensors to help them manage their utilities. The goals were to manage energy use and costs, get real-time alerts for water leaks, and to make contributions toward Comcast's sustainability goals. We brought together best-in-class technologies for this deployment including: *150 wireless current transformers (CTs) to monitor energy usage *LoRaWAN® gateways provided by MachineQ, a Comcast Company to power the solution *MQFlex multi-sensors to monitor for leak detection *SmartKit AI Real-Time Energy Management (RTEM) platform from Logical Buildings To learn more about the early and compelling learnings from this project, as well as how they will use this valuable data to inform decisions moving forward, read our Case Study, below. #SmartTechnologySolutions #SmartBuildings #IoT #comcastbusiness #iworkforcomcast
