EnerTrac, a New Hampshire company founded nearly five years ago with a mission to help home heating fuel vendors make their delivery services more profitable, efficient and timely, has recently expanded into an Internet of Things services firm that hopes its low-cost, long-range wireless technology will attract new customers from a host of industries. The shift comes in combination with a new name—EnerTrac is now Senet, a reference to "sensible network."

Today EnerTrac announces a major restructuring, and the launch of Senet, the Sensible Network Company. For over 4 years EnerTrac has been building its own private Long Range/Low Cost network based on proprietary RF technology as it has successfully rolled out its home heating fuel delivery automation system across the country.
