CNIT versus ESRI in the Smart Grid Project


At the moment it is still very hard to estimate the potential revenue and profit that will be generated for CNIT versus ESRI.
However, we know that CNIT with Wuda Geoinformatics Co., Ltd. are the "Home Players" and ESRI is the "Visitor". China Government and the SGCC will definitely be more supportive for the "Home Players"
Over more the website from the State Grid's own branch "Gio Force Xiamen Billion Information Technology Co., Ltd." = "??????????????" will give you a better insight how deeply rooted GIS and Geostar are in EPGIS = Electric Power GIS.

First a bit of history behind this:
a) http://www.gishr.com/display/company/84.htm
"In 2001, the former State Power Corporation and Power Company Limited, Xiamen in Fujian Province Electric Power Bureau, the localization of the pilot GIS platform based on independent research and proprietary power GIS applications, the project name for the domestic electricity bureau of Xiamen GIS demonstration project, subject Name: Spatial Information Technology in Power System. Wuhan University, Fujian Electric Power selected star as Gio based GIS software platform jointly set up with the Wuhan University, Xiamen billion Information Technology Co., Ltd. Gio force, specialized in the 3S technology in the comprehensive application of the power industry: software product development, marketing, project data production and building a database and system integration services. Million power Gio has become the registered capital of 30 million yuan, with 310 employees (R & D staff of more than 60%), business income of a billion dollars of high-tech enterprise, is currently the high visibility of information for the power industry building industry as a whole based on GIS software and services solutions provider."

EPGIS - Power GIS based software platform.
EPGIS is based on the localization of GIS platform GeoStar build power with independent intellectual property rights of GIS based software platform;...............; EPGIS can build all the power on GIS applications for network planning, production management, scheduling management, communication resource management, vehicle scheduling and management applications provide the basis for professional application support.EPGIS with a high degree of uniformity, scalability, and scalability.

Have a look than to what the the State Grid branch says about cooperation: http://www.epgis.com/about.aspx?nid=20#
A company of Wuhan University (Wuda Geoinformatics) for the technical background, with the localization of Wuhan University, GIS platform - the first choice GeoStar Star Gio GIS platform to develop electric power GIS based software platform - EPGIS, on this basis to build all the power GIS applications.

Have a look how GIS is embedded in the EPGIS software copyrights and software platform: http://www.epgis.com/honor_detail.aspx?id=47#

Have a look to what information technology packages that were recently released by the SGCC mainly in function of the smart grid project. When you click on each of the links you'll find more applications of GIS and GEOSTAR products:

And lastly, when you study the EPGIS website more in depth keep in mind what CNIT gives as info in their websites:
