Remotely Operated LRADs to Provide Critical Infrastructure Protection for Regional Utility’s Electrical Substations

Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in Protective Communications, today announced domestic and international LRAD orders for critical infrastructure protection at oil and gas facilities in Australia and Canada, and certain electrical substations of a major U.S. utility.

“Since 2022, electrical substations have been vandalized and attacked in North Carolina, Washington, California, Oregon, and Idaho,” said Richard Danforth, Chief Executive Officer of Genasys Inc. “The U.S. Department of Energy reported at least 175 instances of physical attacks or threats against critical grid infrastructure, including incidences of theft and vandalism in 2023.*

“The North American Energy Reliability Corporation has established physical security requirements for electric power providers and utilities that include six specific security actions: Detect, Assess, Communicate, Respond, Delay, and Deter,**” continued Mr. Danforth. “Our next generation LRAD 950NXT systems fully address all these security actions to help safeguard vital electrical transmission and distribution assets. The remotely monitored and activated LRAD 950XTs will be integrated with existing physical security systems at certain substations of the U.S. utility under this opening order.”

David Schnell, Genasys Vice President of Global Hardware Sales, said, “This is the second regional utility to install remotely operated LRAD systems for electrical substation security. With LRAD systems protecting dams, nuclear facilities, data centers, and other critical infrastructure sites around the world, our LRAD 950NXTs are ideally suited to meet the physical security requirements at the 1,500 CIP-014 electrical substations in the U.S.”

Unlike traditional physical security networks, LRAD systems provide a vital first response capability missing from observe-only integrated security installations. LRAD turns passive monitoring systems into remote first responders by broadcasting attention-commanding alerts, warnings, and critical notifications with industry-leading audibility and clarity.
