While the Energy Transition brings opportunities to decarbonize and support electrification with affordable, sustainable power, integrating renewables and DERS has proven to be challenging.
Utilities are turning to AMI, sensors, and intelligent devices to bring this transition into clearer view, eager to use powerful data to improve operations and drive new business models. But, with this technology comes big data to instantly gather, analyze and share across the enterprise, revealing a gap in the utility operation — the network.
We reveal the digital transformation behind the energy transition, taking a look at the critical role the network plays in utilities’ ability to meet their business goals, the power of private LTE, potential network architectures with software-defined networks and lessons learned from LTE deployments.
