60Hertz deploys its mobile O&M software – equipped with new language capabilities – to Africa and Southeast Asia

60Hertz isn’t resting on the early success of its mobile app designed to improve operations and maintenance (O&M) for remote Alaska microgrids. The company is now expanding into South America and just closed its first customer in sub-Saharan Africa.
