Mar 01, 2010 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) announced the formation of the Smart Energy Study Group.

The team, made up of three sponsoring member companies including CSR, Broadcom and Emerson, will work together to address Smart Energy initiatives sponsored by governmental entities and other organizations interested in energy management throughout the world.

"With the formation of the Smart Energy Study Group, the Bluetooth SIG and its member companies will work together to tackle Smart Grid technology and increase the presence of Bluetooth technology in this industry," said Michael Foley, Ph.D., executive director of the Bluetooth SIG. "Wireless technology is a key component of the battle to improve the Smart Grid." According to the Bluetooth SIG, the Smart Energy Study Group will begin immediately studying all aspects of the smart energy market and possible implications of Bluetooth technology in this arena. To do this, the group will review current available information on Smart Grid wireless technology, formulate a strategy for Bluetooth Smart Energy and make recommendations based on their findings.

Bluetooth wireless technology is the global short-range wireless standard for personal connectivity of a broad range of electronic devices.
