       ETAP Wins Judgment 
Invalidating Power Analytics (EDSA) Patents
    
        
           
        
         
       
  
      
        
        
          
        
          
          
            
      Operation Technology, Inc. (ETAP) won summary judgment invalidating all patent claims in a lawsuit brought by Power Analytics Corporation (formerly EDSA) for patent infringement.  
     
          
           
        
         
       
  
      
        
        
          
        
            
      Patents subject to this lawsuit were filed by EDSA in 2007. They were related to real-time monitoring of electrical power systems. ETAP originally and independently developed and commercially released its first Real-Time Monitoring and Predictive solution software in 1992 and has been enhancing it ever since. 
 
On July 13, 2017, Hon. John A. Kronstadt, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, ruled that all asserted claims are invalid under the abstractness exclusion to patent eligibility under section 101 of the Patent Act. The claims are invalid in part because none exceeded “the abstract idea of evaluating and reacting to prediction deviations,” the Court ruled.
