The grant will allow the company to accelerate the growth of its eGRID(tm) database development that provides the intelligence hub for all its deployments. The company is also expanding its development of grid intelligence devices that incorporate state of the art digital signal processing, amplification and high voltage analog circuit design.

"Colorado's New Energy Economy continues to bring good jobs and opportunities to our state. I want to congratulate Power Tagging for receiving a grant that will create over 300 new jobs in the next three years," said Governor Bill Ritter (http://www.colorado.gov/governor). "Power Tagging further extends the Colorado smart grid ecosystem with NIST, NREL and the most progressive green tech and smart grid projects in the country. Our state is creating the technologies that will allow all utilities to deliver power in a more reliable and affordable way."

“We are thrilled to have been selected by a prestigious organization like the NSF. This grant will allow us to ensure that our offerings are in full compliance with the emerging new smart grid standards being formulated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST (http://www.nist.gov/smartgrid/)),” said John LoPorto, Power Tagging President and CEO ” Our solutions drive a new dimension of grid intelligence that compliment the growth and standardization of smart grid technologies.”
