On September 30, UTC released a landmark study, “Utility Communications Needs: Key Factors That Impact Utility Communications Networks,” which articulates for the first time in a comprehensive way the key requirements that utilities and communications service providers must meet to provide reliable, robust, secure and ubiquitous communications.
Sponsored by Verizon, this study proves a rich source of strategic information on the crucial technical, operational and regulatory factors that both utilities and their technology partners must take into account in building 21st Century utility communications networks. UTC is proud to follow up this report with a timely webinar that will provide you with the insight you need to understand the fundamentals of how utility communications are structured and, more importantly, what changes are underway that promise to make truly intelligent grid communications a reality.
Moderated by Cynthia Brumfield, UTC’s Director of Research, this webinar will feature top experts on utility communications and how communications service providers fit into the future of the smart grid. This webinar is free for all UTC core utility members and those who purchased the full report of this study. (The report is available here.)
