“There's meters on the market that are doing that at 15,000 times per second. So, so that's fifty million times more data than AMI one dot O.”

“We started to build these little orange boxes that go inside electrical panels and collect data at super high resolution, up to a million samples a second in the little orange box.”

“Low-resolution data sent up to the service provider, made available later on, and look, there's some things you can do with that, but you just can't have a real-time, consumer-facing app, and then you can't see the grid in real-time from the edge either.”

“What we've learned since then is that same high-resolution data lets us see, ah, the grid from the edge, lets us see transformers arcing, lets us see vegetation hanging power lines in real-time. That only happens through high-resolution data.”

“We are working with some of the meter makers to have the next generations of meters that have even higher sampling rates than that, going all the way up to megahertz, and that's unlocking some more use cases around arc fault detection, you know, when there's a…”

“I've been a little less concerned about that, because for computation, you can always be very efficient about your algorithms, and you can make trade-offs from the algorithms. The reason we're more concerned about the data is if you don't have the data, you do…”

“Look, if smart devices were fully enabled and every device out in your home told us what it was doing, we'd be happy to use that. But it's far from being the case.”
