Glen Canyon Corp. deploys virtual AMI in China


San Antonio, Texas, January 24, 2012 — Glen Canyon Corp. and Beijing Guozhiheng Power Management Technology Group Co., Ltd. will deploy 1.5 million advanced single phase meters in China using Glen Canyon's V-AMI system.

V-AMI is an AMI-as-service business model in which up front capital cost is replaced by a low monthly service fee. V-AMI is enabled by Glen Canyon's standards compliant NEXGEN smart meters communicating through already-existing network infrastructure to NEXGEN Cloud meter data management software and browser-based applications.

The Internet-enabled communicating meters and applications software system will be deployed over 18 months. GZH Power, one of the authorized technology platform providers for the China State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC), will collaborate with SERC to deploy the Advanced Metering Infrastructure to support V-AMI.
