GRE Alpha Joins EnOcean Alliance

    HONG KONG, November 03, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- GRE Alpha Electronics, Ltd., an LED power supply manufacturer has joined the EnOcean Alliance, known for self-powered wireless sensor solutions for battery-free applications in the internet of Things (IoT). EnOcean' s seamless integration of self-powered sensors and switches, featuring GRE's smart dimming lighting technology function with building management systems. The powerful combination aims to speed the adoption of sustainable building and home automation systems.

IoT connected devices require masses of data to improve daily lives. Sensors gather this data by monitoring temperature, motion, presence, light conditions and much more. EnOcean is the backbone for such a comprehensive network of self-powered wireless sensors that provide reliable sensor data for IoT systems. GRE products pair well with EnOcean's patented energy harvesting wireless technology. "GRE Alpha's EnOcean-certified products will be the first of many innovative IoT lighting control products to enable this vision," says Richard Fong, Director at GRE Alpha. Current plans include launching three regional power supply versions: 902MHz in North America, 928 MHz in Japan, and 868MHz in Europe and China.

GRE offers a host of products such dimmers, surge limiters and AC/DC LED drivers. While their products vary in function, they all have one thing in common - they're modular. With GRE Alpha's modular approach to LED technology and EnOcean Alliance's wireless innovations, trillions of IoT sensors can be powered and efficiently deployed. EnOcean' s end-goal is to enable interoperability between original equipment manufacturer and partner products. "Our partnership with EnOcean will allow for quicker innovation and rapid adoption of IoT in the smart lighting space via EnOcean' s wireless platform," Fong says.

As a member of the EnOcean Alliance, GRE Alpha will have access to exclusive software and peer work groups, allowing them to share their LED expertise and collaborate with other EnOcean Alliance members to design the technologies of tomorrow.
