Case Studies
U.S. Case Study 1: Urban Utility Grid Monitoring – Chicago, IL
A metropolitan utility company deployed over 15,000 narrowband-enabled gas and electric meters across residential and commercial buildings. Using nextgenwifitech end-to-end platform, they achieved near real-time grid analytics with >98% data transmission success rate and reduced maintenance costs by 28%.
U.S. Case Study 2: Asset Monitoring in Cold Storage Facilities – Dallas, TX
nextgenwifitech partnered with a logistics firm managing frozen goods to install narrowband sensors in temperature-sensitive storage zones. The deployment helped maintain compliance with FDA storage regulations, reducing spoilage incidents by 70%.
Canadian Case Study: Smart Lighting in Industrial Parks – Ontario
A regional development authority worked with nextgenwifitech to implement smart lighting in an industrial zone, using Narrowband Channel communication for low-latency light control and scheduling. This resulted in energy savings of 45% and significantly reduced infrastructure wear.
