It falls to utilities to ensure their assets perform safely and reliably while meeting regulatory and environmental standards. How are utilities managing risk amid surging DER and the growing threat of major weather-related disruptions?
With the influx of DER, utilities' grid and communications networks are becoming more integrated and complex, opening them up to vulnerabilities. As hackers grow more sophisticated, utilities are ramping up cybersecurity.
The lure of 5G digitalization is strong, promising new connectivity and cost savings. But implementing 5G at scale will require collaboration among carriers, utilities, communities, state and local regulators and technology integrators.
Reliable communications networks allow utilities to deliver uninterrupted #power to customers. No longer content to outsource their communications networks to public carriers, utilities are bringing networks in-house via fiber optics and wireless.
New Black & Veatch report finds that advanced distribution modernization sees utilities rapidly adopting digital technologies such as sensors, automated line switches and advanced remote monitoring to give themselves more control and faster response.
When it comes to planning, utility managers are working to break down silos and overcome barriers in an effort to operate more cross-functionally as they tackle the challenges of distributed energy resources and non-wires alternatives.
New Black & Veatch report finds that grid mod efforts are maturing as utilities double down on distribution investments to boost resilience. What was once a “nice to have” has quickly transformed into a “must” in today’s evolving utility landscape.
Black & Veatch’s 2020 Strategic Directions: Smart Utilities Report analyzes how major trends are reshaping the grid of the future. From two-way power flows to DER, utilities are working to ensure a more sustainable, reliable and resilient future.
The ideas which shape our future technology can come from anywhere. They might come from the mind of Luis Gomez with some assistance from Qualcomm's Thinkabit Lab.
