About Us

kWantera was founded in 2006 to provide a sophisticated sensing capability to US soldiers in dangerous and difficult situations, such as war zone building searches. Formerly called MobileFusion, Inc., we developed a family of portable and rugged remote sensing devices that combined our proprietary software and hardware technology for customers and partners such as the US Army, US Marine Corps and various US intelligence and civilian agencies. The US military valued our software’s ability to collect and analyze high volumes of data and make real-time decisions with high accuracy.

 

Because of the success of this program, the US Navy asked us to explore the application of our advanced data analytics technology to the equally critical and challenging problem of reducing diesel fuel consumption on forward operating bases (FOBs) in Afghanistan and Iraq -- without compromising operational readiness or performance. We successfully repurposed our advanced data analytics technology to the task of optimizing power consumption on FOBs and thus reducing the need for very dangerous fuel transportation that causes a high percentage of US casualties.

 

Our cloud-based, multi-purpose energy management service, kWantera Analytics (kWA), lowers the cost of purchasing, consuming and ensuring the quality of energy for large industrial and commercial companies and others. Our success to date is driven partly by the dual global forces of market deregulation and increasing energy consciousness, which are generating an unprecedented volume and variety of complex data.

 

kWantera is led by a team of seasoned executives and funded by venture capital. Our headquarters is in Pittsburgh, PA with sales offices throughout North America. We are expanding our engineering, sales, and marketing teams. Please submit your resume to .
