Telvent GIT SA has been selected by SA Power Networks to provide an advanced distribution management system (advanced DMS) that will help ensure a reliable and efficient energy network. This is the first major advanced DMS project for Telvent in Australia and one of the company’s largest in the world.
Telvent’s real-time solution will allow SA Power Networks to serve its 830,000 customers in the state of South Australia more reliably, with better overall network management, and will form the foundation of SA Power Networks future smart network technology.

According to Telvent's Chairman and CEO, Ignacio Gonzalez, “We are proud to help SA Power Networks optimise its energy management in South Australia. Our solution will provide the data and detail necessary for the utility to deliver even better customer service. Furthermore, the flexibility of our technology will serve the utility’s operations today while being adaptable to future conditions and needs.”
