Totem Power, Inc. describes their design as the “world’s first energy solution to reimagine and redesign smart utility.” Totem’s potential in steering cities towards cleaner energy lies in its scalable model and its versatile and elegant look designed to complement a variety of settings, from corporate campuses to shopping centers. As a WIFI and 4G hub, Totem also unifies smart energy and connectivity, an important combination that allows the Totem to maintain critical services and communications in the event of grid failure.
