Gantner Instruments, a global leader in distributed data acquisition, continues to work with researchers from the University of Cyprus to find better ways to optimally and intelligently manage electric power consumption and generation, especially in local grids with a high proportion of renewable energies.
Projects like these require the storage of many parameters for decades; Early on, Gantner recognized that cloud storage and computing were the future of intelligent grid monitoring and screened the market for concepts that simultaneously support data stream processing and hot data. Gantner’s cloud backend now has multiple databases for gigawatts of solar power with 200,000 parameters at one-minute resolution and energy assets with more than 8,000 parameters at one-hertz resolution. We can combine that data and make it available quickly, independently of how long the history is.
Join our webinar to learn how Gantner technology relies on Apache Kafka for data streaming and the robust architecture of CrateDB, a world-leading multi-model database. Learn how Gantner’s cloud backend makes data analysis at scale very easy, analyzes the amount of data generated by modern energy projects in real-time, and improves power generation and consumption processes through machine learning.

Precise Measurement of High Voltage Systems
In high-voltage environments, the precision and reliability of measurement systems are crucial for safety, compliance, and performance optimization. High-voltage testing and measurement are integral to developing and producing equipment and systems that operate under high-voltage conditions, such as power transmission systems, high-voltage motors and generators, and components for electric vehicles. Gantner Instruments' Q.series X A12x modules (e.g., Q.series X A128) offer sophisticated solutions to address the unique challenges of high-voltage measurements.

Safe, secure, and traceable data acquisition is essential in complex, large-scale scientific environments like the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). Reliable remote access is critical to supporting the diverse team members in their data acquisition (DAQ) setup and operations. Collaborating with the Blinky-lite team, we have implemented a test setup that successfully navigates these challenges in constrained environments.
