Broadband Powerline: The Third Wire
Telecom Trends International (TTI), July 2007
Smart Grid to Emerge as Major Application
Falls Church, Virginia: Broadband Powerline (BPL) will generate $4.95 billion in access revenue in 2013, according to a new report. This represents a compound annual growth rate of 53.9 percent over the revenue generated in 2006, the research firm said.
“Over the past two years, commercial rollouts of BPL have picked up, giving the technology a lot of momentum,” said Naqi Jaffery, President and Chief Analyst, Telecom Trends International, Inc. “At the same time, technical solutions to BPL’s interference potential have emerged.”
The report, “Broadband Powerline: The Third Wire,” says BPL standardization activity has picked up. On the technical front, the OPERA consortium has standardized Access BPL, and the HomePlug Powerline Alliance is working on an access standard of its own. However, according to the report, the entry of IEEE in the standardization process has created the prospect of a globally-accepted BPL standard by 2008.
Mr. Jaffery said BPL is offering quad-play, with smart grid emerging as major application, adding: “Service providers are using BPL as a bidirectional communication platform.” Besides providing high-speed Internet access, BPL is delivering real-time data for monitoring the electric grid, Mr. Jaffery said.
