Cook Islands to feature a LoRaWAN® network for
water and energy management, local street light operation and
more
Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading global supplier of
high performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and
advanced algorithms, announced a joint collaboration with ICTnexus,
an information communications technology and Internet of Things
(IoT) solution and service provider, to bring LoRaWAN® connectivity
to the Cook Islands. As part of the ICTnexus Smart Islands project,
an IoT platform will feature Semtech’s LoRa® devices as well as a
LoRaWAN network for the Island’s infrastructure. Implementing
LoRaWAN allows for several smart island use cases including energy
metering, water management, air quality and weather stations,
street light operation, asset tracking, and emergency notifications
(tsunami sirens).

“Scalability was key in choosing the right technology to develop
the Cook Islands into truly smart islands,” said Tai Kauraka
Tangaroa, chief executive officer at ICTnexus. “As we start with
Rarotonga to launch, building IoT infrastructure across 15 islands
is no simple task, but the strong capabilities of Semtech’s LoRa
devices and LoRaWAN standard provided an ease of deployment and
scalability this comprehensive project requires to succeed.
ICTnexus and Semtech are bringing the smart island concept to life
with the Cook Islands.”
According to ICTnexus, this deployment is the first energy
management systems leveraging LoRaWAN on the Pacific Islands. The
long distance communication capability of LoRaWAN is ideal for this
type of project, connecting all IoT-enabled devices for
applications for the Island’s power grid, utility meters, gas
meters, turbidity sensors for the water treatment plant, water flow
and treatment sensors, water tank level sensors, waste water
monitors, and smart water meters. In addition, one of the main
applications in connection with the Cook Island Climate Change
Program is energy monitoring and management. All aforementioned
applications will also feature a management platform for operators
to view data in real time to maintain the Island’s operations.
“The concept of a smart island is no longer a concept as the
potential of LoRa and the LoRaWAN standard continues to be embraced
worldwide,” said Marc Pégulu, vice president of IoT product
marketing and strategy for Semtech’s Wireless and Sensing Products
Group. “The Cook Islands’ investment for a robust IoT-based
infrastructure with LoRaWAN is a great move to improve the lives of
its citizens.”
