Expansion of Power Grid Lines Amplifying Market Growth – Over the years, the population across the globe has increased substantially. As per the World Bank Statistics, in 2022, the total population reached around 7.95 billion, an increase of about 60 million people compared to 2021. Along with this, there has been a rise in urbanization across the region, like Asia-Pacific & South America. This is resulting in higher requirements for the residential spaces that need the power. Therefore, private entities are actively expanding their power gridlines to fulfill the requirements of the customers and make electricity accessible to the mass population. For instance, in 2022, Iberdrola announced an investment of around USD 45 billion to extend the grid network in the US. This expansion of electricity network infrastructure requires solutions that help in overall power management & distribution, thus supporting the Global DERs Management Systems Industry.

Additionally, the power infrastructure of several countries has become old, causing power outage issues. As per the Department of Energy, the majority of the power infrastructure is 40 to 60 years old. Thus, there is a dire need for renovation and the authorities have been upgrading the outdated power infrastructure.

A Deep Dive into Some Deep Thoughts

A Deep Dive into Some Deep Thoughts

In preparation for sharing this post with you, I read an abundance of powerful quotes, interpreted, researched, and included ways to implement their value into your life, or at least that was my intent. It is my hope that you are able to draw your own interpretations and meaning, and most importantly, apply what serves you to improve your mindset, your circumstances, and the quality of your life.

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” – Thomas A. Edison

Interpretation: It is quite easy to quit once resistance or obstacles present themselves, and move on to another endeavor, to most assuredly repeat the same process. Think about how different your life would be if you gave up when things got hard. If you are blessed with the ability to walk, I can assure you that you did not accomplish that on your first try. You are reading or listening to this post right now, which means you endured the undoubtedly challenging process of learning a language. Sure, you might take for granted talking and walking, but what if you applied the same tenacity to learning and mastering anything you choose to spend your time doing?

Implementation: Go into any experience, with the mindset that you are ready to learn, ready to fail, and most importantly, ready to move forwards and keep trying no matter what you face. Anything less than your best effort, is a squandering of your time, and time is your most valuable resource in life. If you are going to do something, do it well and with a sense of pride, no matter how small or big the task is.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below to see how individuals like Thomas Edison embodied the power of second chances, and an unquenchable desire to succeed. How different our world would be if Thomas Edison gave up on his ambitions and ideas?

12 Successful People Who Faced Extreme Hardship But Never Gave Up

_‌________________________________________________________________

"It is far better to be alone than in bad company." George Washington

Interpretation: The people you choose to surround yourself with, greatly determine the quality and direction of your life. Choose wisely, and learn when it is best to disengage, and walk your own path. There is a powerful sense of peace that comes with enjoying your own company. Once you are able to do so, you will not seek validation or approval from others, and will appreciate your time with those who actually deserve it.

Implementation: Think about the relationships in your life, especially the ones you have chosen to invest your time and heart into. Do they reciprocate your efforts within the relationship? Do they inspire you to grow? Do they bring peace and comfort into your life? Does the relationship consistently provide a meaningful and mutually positive experience for both sides? Take the time to ask yourself these questions and evaluate who you spend your time with accordingly.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below for some great insight on navigating friendships and making good, informed choices in your life.

_________________________________________________________________

"The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change: the realist adjusts the sails." William Arthur Ward

Interpretation: Think about the last time you complained about something. While spending your time and energy on complaining, did a solution emerge? It is far more likely that clarity came when you decided to stop complaining and began thinking about a solution or reframed your perspective on the situation. The pessimist has a negative, fixed mindset regarding the wind which serves little purpose. The optimist's perspective, although positive, lacks action which will often not get them to where they aspire to be. The realist evaluates the situation, identifies what they can control, and adjusts their actions accordingly.

Implementation: Next time you are faced with a challenge, or uncomfortable situation, remember that wasting your time and thoughts on playing victim, or complaining about the circumstances, will not get you very far. Instead, believe there is a solution that you simply have not found yet, and focus on your energy on determining a first, logical, step you can take to improve your situation.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below for interesting insight on pessimism, optimism, realism, and the importance of a balanced mindset in life.

‌"Don't be distracted by criticism. Remember, the only taste of success some people get is to take a bite out of you." Zig Zagler

Interpretation: Do not let other people's opinions of you determine your sense of personal value or impede your path to success. As part of my journey to becoming a life coach, I have posted my work on social media, knowing that I am opening myself up to potential criticism. Unsurprisingly, I have received some negative comments that provide no value or constructive feedback, and were written to just take away from what I am trying to accomplish. I paid them little thought and kept moving forwards. To clarify, you should be open to feedback as that will help you to make progress and refine your product, but you should evaluate the source and intent behind such input. The moment you stop trying to impress others and act out of a need of validation and approval; is the moment you learn that true strength and growth comes from within.

Implementation: Surround yourself with people you trust, you respect, and who will help you to learn and grow. Disregard intentionally harmful criticism and a need for validation, do your best to be your best, and be open minded to who and what you can learn from to assist with this process. Do not let negative people, or circumstances, keep you from getting to where you want to be.

Deeper Dive: You cannot avoid criticism, but you can learn to handle it in a positive and productive way. Check out the article below to do just that.

_________________________________________________________________

‌"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." J.K. Rowling

Interpretation: Life is full of so many different things that are out of our control, however, it is what we choose to do with what we do have control over, that ultimately determines our quality of life. When you choose to continuously seek knowledge and ability, through education, practice, and experience, you are making an investment in yourself that can only help your cause. It is the hard working and resilient individuals that often find success over the naturally gifted. You are not determined by your current abilities and circumstances; you are determined by the decisions you make to change them. Remember that.

Implementation: Your thoughts determine your emotions, and consequently, the actions you ultimately choose to take. The key to changing your life, is changing your thoughts. Learn to think rationally and make sound decisions and choices that are most likely to result in positive change in your life.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below to see how even the smallest, seemingly insignificant choices, and have a profound effect on your life.

AN ECONOMIC LOOK ON RUSSIA

The solution in 3 words

I could say

1) von

2) der

3) laid

Since I didn't do the other 16 sanctions

Honestly reading of recession odds on the guardian propaganda.. mislead me

But it's true I'm not informed enough on Russia economy

Yet some helpful concepts may be applied

Data:

- Russia economy is stable by itself

And not unbalanced to war

That's a good base because points at external reasons

- globally the markets systems are dividing and isolating themselves

From thee EU sanctions feud

To the USA tariff aggressions

Markets are now weapons and that's not Russia controlled

- these aggressions that are targeting Russia too if zooming out they don't look like reactions to a something to blame on Russia but appear as a blaming pattern against Russia regardless of its behaviour, which in any case doesn't have to be justified or pre approved by capitalist countries

+

but there's another FACT

That keeps being minimised, globally, and almost mocked at

And its not yet visible because, attention, is

CONSEQUENTIAL

Fred's WALLER today dared a Saudi statement

"Tariffs impact on inflation are short and light"

BOOOOOMBOCLAT WHAT A SLUT

Because

And its from the same group of personal interests that demanding to ban me for "influence on markets"

But claiming tariffas are inert WTF 🤌🏽,

They ignore that

:

Tariffs influence economy

Therefore there's another data:

- global economic disruption by macroeconomics mishandling

And I hereby state such disruption is a SAUDI STRATEGY IMPLEMENTED BY USA AND EU

PROVINCES OF SALMAN

_____

Actions recommended

1) INTERNAL

- sectors with unfilled market spots

Internally the production can be expanded to fit marketing targets now out:

• Affordability the guideline but not only

• Innovation can be also imported and without sanctions

• increase of wages to sustain the demand now more important than inflation

For instance a new.. innovative car model scalable in pricing but low in costs

I'll design it.. we could make it in Morocco 😎

A big river is often made of many and smaller affluents.. to visualise it

It's an enormous job.. agreed ..DIVERSIFYING

2) EXTERNAL

- access to friendly markets

Linking it to the internal set

Because what is good can be good anywhere

- natural resources

Must become a PR card to the world without threats to Russia, which has to invest in deal making

- Geopolitical obstacles

Are the most important factor

And can be rooted in Arabia and the governments it controls however good they SIMULATE else

They SIMULATE but the fast play discovers them

• some geopolitical entities must be freed and stabilised: EU and USA by evidence

I repeat: by evidence

3) CURRENCY (ENGINEERING)

this is the most interesting and courages try

Because

Increasing wages and sustaining internal demand requires cash, DISTRIBUTED

And the risk is

- inflation

And

- currency depreciation

The first is bad but in this competitive period the second isn't

To control Inflation

Recommending

• a CENTRALISED PRICE CONTROL SYSTEM

Prolly a first or so in economy

• coerced credit

Explaining: 400 BN seized can be for the time range and the geopolitical conditions still considered available 😎

If years from now are definitely lost then years from now it will be accounted

It's a weight in a weighter dish, the inflation

The leverage is over the trillion.. but bankers are better at those maths

I think this is in synthesis a complete even if not detailed approach for an immediate reboot

But

A more long termed strategy should frame it

😎✊🏿 Compañero

PS:

Salman in this moment

It's like a prostitute fearing to lose energy customers

So

If Russia pulls up the mini..

Salman will implode in anger

Why don't you give it a try 😎

A Deep Dive into Some Deep Thoughts

A Deep Dive into Some Deep Thoughts

In preparation for sharing this post with you, I read an abundance of powerful quotes, interpreted, researched, and included ways to implement their value into your life, or at least that was my intent. It is my hope that you are able to draw your own interpretations and meaning, and most importantly, apply what serves you to improve your mindset, your circumstances, and the quality of your life.

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” – Thomas A. Edison

Interpretation: It is quite easy to quit once resistance or obstacles present themselves, and move on to another endeavor, to most assuredly repeat the same process. Think about how different your life would be if you gave up when things got hard. If you are blessed with the ability to walk, I can assure you that you did not accomplish that on your first try. You are reading or listening to this post right now, which means you endured the undoubtedly challenging process of learning a language. Sure, you might take for granted talking and walking, but what if you applied the same tenacity to learning and mastering anything you choose to spend your time doing?

Implementation: Go into any experience, with the mindset that you are ready to learn, ready to fail, and most importantly, ready to move forwards and keep trying no matter what you face. Anything less than your best effort, is a squandering of your time, and time is your most valuable resource in life. If you are going to do something, do it well and with a sense of pride, no matter how small or big the task is.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below to see how individuals like Thomas Edison embodied the power of second chances, and an unquenchable desire to succeed. How different our world would be if Thomas Edison gave up on his ambitions and ideas?

12 Successful People Who Faced Extreme Hardship But Never Gave Up

_‌________________________________________________________________

"It is far better to be alone than in bad company." George Washington

Interpretation: The people you choose to surround yourself with, greatly determine the quality and direction of your life. Choose wisely, and learn when it is best to disengage, and walk your own path. There is a powerful sense of peace that comes with enjoying your own company. Once you are able to do so, you will not seek validation or approval from others, and will appreciate your time with those who actually deserve it.

Implementation: Think about the relationships in your life, especially the ones you have chosen to invest your time and heart into. Do they reciprocate your efforts within the relationship? Do they inspire you to grow? Do they bring peace and comfort into your life? Does the relationship consistently provide a meaningful and mutually positive experience for both sides? Take the time to ask yourself these questions and evaluate who you spend your time with accordingly.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below for some great insight on navigating friendships and making good, informed choices in your life.

_________________________________________________________________

"The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change: the realist adjusts the sails." William Arthur Ward

Interpretation: Think about the last time you complained about something. While spending your time and energy on complaining, did a solution emerge? It is far more likely that clarity came when you decided to stop complaining and began thinking about a solution or reframed your perspective on the situation. The pessimist has a negative, fixed mindset regarding the wind which serves little purpose. The optimist's perspective, although positive, lacks action which will often not get them to where they aspire to be. The realist evaluates the situation, identifies what they can control, and adjusts their actions accordingly.

Implementation: Next time you are faced with a challenge, or uncomfortable situation, remember that wasting your time and thoughts on playing victim, or complaining about the circumstances, will not get you very far. Instead, believe there is a solution that you simply have not found yet, and focus on your energy on determining a first, logical, step you can take to improve your situation.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below for interesting insight on pessimism, optimism, realism, and the importance of a balanced mindset in life.

‌"Don't be distracted by criticism. Remember, the only taste of success some people get is to take a bite out of you." Zig Zagler

Interpretation: Do not let other people's opinions of you determine your sense of personal value or impede your path to success. As part of my journey to becoming a life coach, I have posted my work on social media, knowing that I am opening myself up to potential criticism. Unsurprisingly, I have received some negative comments that provide no value or constructive feedback, and were written to just take away from what I am trying to accomplish. I paid them little thought and kept moving forwards. To clarify, you should be open to feedback as that will help you to make progress and refine your product, but you should evaluate the source and intent behind such input. The moment you stop trying to impress others and act out of a need of validation and approval; is the moment you learn that true strength and growth comes from within.

Implementation: Surround yourself with people you trust, you respect, and who will help you to learn and grow. Disregard intentionally harmful criticism and a need for validation, do your best to be your best, and be open minded to who and what you can learn from to assist with this process. Do not let negative people, or circumstances, keep you from getting to where you want to be.

Deeper Dive: You cannot avoid criticism, but you can learn to handle it in a positive and productive way. Check out the article below to do just that.

https://thearisesociety.com/how-to-handle-criticism/

_________________________________________________________________

‌"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." J.K. Rowling

Interpretation: Life is full of so many different things that are out of our control, however, it is what we choose to do with what we do have control over, that ultimately determines our quality of life. When you choose to continuously seek knowledge and ability, through education, practice, and experience, you are making an investment in yourself that can only help your cause. It is the hard working and resilient individuals that often find success over the naturally gifted. You are not determined by your current abilities and circumstances; you are determined by the decisions you make to change them. Remember that.

Implementation: Your thoughts determine your emotions, and consequently, the actions you ultimately choose to take. The key to changing your life, is changing your thoughts. Learn to think rationally and make sound decisions and choices that are most likely to result in positive change in your life.

Deeper Dive: Check out the article below to see how even the smallest, seemingly insignificant choices, and have a profound effect on your life.

Smart Energy Automation: Integrating Meters, IEDs and Edge Control

The future of energy automation lies at the intersection of intelligent field devices, real-time data, and robust edge computing. As power grids become more decentralized and complex, the ability to monitor, control, and optimize energy systems in real time—at the edge—is critical. At the heart of this transformation is the integration of smart meters, intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), and edge gateways such as the ARMxy series.

1. The Growing Complexity of Modern Energy Systems

Traditional energy networks operated in a largely unidirectional flow: from generation to transmission to distribution. Today, the landscape is far more dynamic. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), electric vehicle chargers, battery storage systems, and intelligent substations demand bi-directional data flows, real-time control, and deep interoperability between heterogeneous devices.

This shift calls for a new layer of intelligence at the edge—between sensors and cloud—to ensure fast, autonomous decision-making and greater system resilience.

2. Role of Smart Meters and IEDs

Smart meters and IEDs are key components in energy infrastructure:

Smart Meters provide granular visibility into consumption, voltage, power factor, and more.

IEDs—such as protection relays, digital fault recorders, and reclosers—ensure system protection and automation.

However, these devices alone don’t offer unified control or cross-system intelligence. That’s where edge computing platforms like ARMxy come in.

3. ARMxy Edge Gateways as Integration Hubs

Our ARMxy edge gateways act as a protocol-agnostic bridge between field devices and higher-level systems. Supporting a rich set of industrial protocols—such as Modbus RTU/TCP, IEC 104, DNP3, IEC 61850, MQTT, and OPC UA—ARMxy can communicate directly with diverse meters and IEDs from different vendors.

Key features include:

Real-time data processing to filter, validate, and aggregate energy data before forwarding

Edge logic & automation using tools like Node-RED or custom scripts for on-device control

Secure communication with encryption and firewall support

Cloud connectivity for SCADA, EMS, or cloud analytics platforms

By pushing intelligence to the edge, ARMxy minimizes latency, offloads central systems, and ensures continuous operation even during network disruptions.

4. Practical Applications

In real-world deployments, ARMxy-powered systems are being used to:

Monitor transformer health and load status in substations

Manage energy quality across industrial campuses

Enable demand-side response by controlling loads based on tariff signals

Trigger alarms and protective actions when abnormal voltage, current, or temperature is detected

Interface with Building Management Systems (BMS) and Energy Management Systems (EMS)

For example, a utility company might use ARMxy to gather real-time voltage sag data from IEDs and push only events (rather than all raw measurements) to a central platform, reducing bandwidth while retaining operational insights.

5. Toward a Smarter, Greener Grid

The integration of meters, IEDs, and edge control forms the foundation of Smart Grid 2.0. It enhances energy visibility, optimizes asset performance, and enables predictive maintenance—all while lowering operational costs.

ARMxy’s modular design, flexible protocol support, and rugged industrial-grade hardware make it ideal for deployment in substations, renewable energy plants, and large-scale industrial facilities. Whether in remote rural areas or dense urban centers, edge automation ensures that power flows are not only monitored but intelligently managed.

Conclusion

Smart energy automation isn't just about collecting more data—it's about making smarter decisions closer to the source. By integrating smart meters, IEDs, and edge gateways like ARMxy, utilities and energy-intensive industries can build more adaptive, reliable, and efficient systems.

As we move toward a decentralized energy future, edge intelligence will be the key enabler of sustainable, real-time control.
