Silver Spring Networks, Inc.

A maker of wireless networking technology for the "smart grid," Silver Spring Networks builds the radio-based systems that let electric utilities read meters remotely, monitor the power grid, and manage outages. Its networks connect millions of smart meters and grid devices for utilities across the US and dozens of other countries. Founded in 2002 in Silicon Valley, the company took its name from the Silver Spring, Maryland, suburb where its founders first met while working on early smart-grid projects.
