Rhiza Research Inc

The power equality initiative over the past decades, sweeping efforts have been made to ensure global access to electricity. However, in much of the world, even those with access to electricity still receive electricity with poor reliability and quality. This lack of quality undermines the proposed benefits of electrification in homes, businesses, schools, and hospitals and also makes it much more difficult for utilities to transition their grids to cleaner energy. Rhiza worked to bring together key stakeholders in the space of power quality measurement and participated in a working group on characterizing the state of global electricity grids.
