Prisma Photonics
Monitoring large-scale critical infrastructure ensures continual operation of energy assests, reduces spillages and environmental damage, and supports the transition to a cleaner energy future
About Us
We monitor large scale infrastructure, such as power grids, oil &gas pipelines, underwater infrastructure, trains, and other critical utilities. We monitor for thousands of km without installing any sensors – transforming the existing optical fibers to distributed acoustic sensors, and ensuring critical infrastructure remains up and running
Relevant Challenges
Energy Transmission and Distribution
Increasing power efficiency and reducing power loss during transmission and distribution, improving power flow and congestion management, enhancing grid flexibility, demand response capabilities and bi and multi-directional smart energy flows in distributed energy resources.
Water Infrastructure Resilience
Resilience of water infrastructure to the impacts of climate change.
Infrastructure and Community Resilience
Minimize damage from extreme weather events to construction, water, sanitation (and related health risks), telecommunications, power and additional essential services as well as to local communities. Can include both endurance to extreme phenomena as well as measures that reduce the intensity of an event.
Prediction, Risk Assessment and Monitoring
Tools with high spatial and temporal resolution for event prediction and risk assessment, including now-casting for short-term forecasts, warnings and real-time alert and monitoring systems.
