Duke Awards Smart Grid Contract to Ambient
Boston, MA - September 9,
2009 - Ambient Corporation (OTCBB: ABTG) today announced a long-term agreement with Duke Energy to provide communication technologies for the utility's next phase of its smart grid deployment.
"Duke is pleased to expand
our relationship with Ambient through the execution of this agreement. Ambient's two-way communication node advances our vision of building a smart grid intelligent network that supports the integration of numerous devices on the grid," said Todd Arnold, Duke Energy's SVP of Smart Grid and Customer Systems.
