HD Supply Utilities, Orlando, joined forces with N-Dimension Solutions Inc., Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada, a provider of cyber security solutions for the smart grid, to commission a cyber-security system for the city of Princeton, Ill. The cyber solution is a critical component of HD Supply’s integrated, end-to-end smart grid solution, GridAdvance. The Princeton project came from a $700,000 energy efficiency grant from the Illinois’ Energy Plan, which allowed the city to deploy smart grid technologies that benefit 3,700 residential and 600 commercial and industrial customers. The city’s new smart grid system was deployed last September.
