Business
Amperion Greece SA is a Smart Grid company. It designs and manufactures its own technology which enables the transmission of high speed data over electrical wires. It addresses the global Smart Grid market using its own patented technology. In 2009 Amperion signed a global co-operation agreement with Siemens AG to jointly address the global Smart Grid market.

Our customers are Electricity Utilities world-wide. The current global market estimation runs into 18,000 Utilities world-wide – Important to note that Siemens enjoys approx. 34% of the Global Electrical Utility Energy Automation business. Currently we have pilots deployed or planned in Utilities in Greece, Egypt, Philippines, Turkey, India and over 20 more locations spread around the world.
Reliability of electrical grid, efficient load management, reduction in line losses (technical and non-technical), implementation of smart metering systems, connection and control of renewable energy platforms.
The main problem for Utilities world-wide is the maintenance and control of their existing Medium and Low Voltage (MV & LV) networks. Typically MV & LV networks represent the largest, longest and most important infrastructure. Existing MV & LV infrastructures are usually very old, poorly maintained and prohibitively expensive to replace. Increasing demand from consumers leads to more black-outs with resulting catastrophic losses in the local economies. At the same time huge amounts of produced energy are wasted because although the demand peaks only at specific times during the day, the Utilities must be ready for this regardless. Management of the peaks through Smart Grid technology represents a large saving opportunity for the Utilities.

We have implemented pilot projects mainly in the areas where Siemens has ongoing business activity. Most of our projects are either custom-built as per customer specifications or off-the-shelf for educated Utilities. Nationwide deployments will usually take the form of either a large project through a consortium of dedicated partners involving Amperion, Siemens and a local Integrator, or specialized PPP (Public / Private Partnership) projects.

There are some other companies entering the Smart Grid business, mainly from the US. Most of these concentrate on Low Voltage applications. Those who are entering the Medium Voltage market usually infringe Amperion’s patents. In either case we feel that we are leading the competition both with our technology and know-how, as well as with our existing pilot projects one of which in Larissa, Greece is considered the most extensive and complex Smart Grid pilot world-wide.
A rare chance to get in at the ground level with a company set to become a major global entity in the Smart Grid sector, within 2-3 years!
We work with a gross margin of approx. 30% for the specialized hardware we produce and at least 45% for the dedicated services we provide. In conjunction with our global partner Siemens AG, we deploy smart grid solutions to Electric Utilities, usually in the MV / LV sector. We have implemented the largest and most sophisticated Smart Grid pilot globally, which is used as a reference site for other international utilities.
