Digitalizing the Grid - Booth #5558
Utilities and cities are increasingly moving to digital solutions. These knowledge hub sessions explore how digitalization and data analytics are being applied to advanced metering infrastructure, distribution automation, asset management, cybersecurity, public safety, resiliency, customer engagement, outages and more.
Grid Edge Technologies - Booth #2041
Grid edge technologies are getting more sophisticated. From sensors that detect outages all along the distribution network to smart features that can lower customer bills and assist with demand management, grid operators now have a slew of tools at their fingertips that can help them reduce load or explore non-wires alternatives to major grid upgrades. Plus, newer technologies like solar PV, batteries, and EV chargers are coming equipped with smart sensors that also add more intelligence to the ever-expanding grid edge.

Grid Transformation - Booth #1552
The energy transition requires a wholesale rethinking of “the grid.” Flexibility wasn’t the prime objective when the world’s largest machine was built more than a century ago, and despite innovation, there’s still a need for rapid transformation. This hub will explore the groundbreaking projects, regulatory developments, and collaborative models driving the transition toward a modernized grid.

Resiliency - Booth #1001
Utility resiliency comes in many shapes and sizes, though the ultimate goal is the same: keeping the lights on. This hub will feature the tools and tactics used by utilities to fortify the distribution and transmission systems to withstand threats from extreme weather, wildfires, physical and cyber attacks, and more.
Technology & the Energy Transition - Booth #7121
Technology is a key enabler of the energy transition. Utilities are looking to new solutions to bridge the gap between ambitious decarbonization goals and operational complexity. These Knowledge Hub sessions unveil the solutions critical to this effort, including energy management systems, virtual power plants, customer engagement platforms, data management, and more.
