Utilities are moving into a new era. Regulatory mandates, volatile energy costs, surging power demands and growing global environmental concerns are driving the need for a radically different power grid landscape. These and other drivers are forcing companies to evolve to a new reality: operating with traditional grid structures will no longer suffice. To keep pace in a changing world, utilities everywhere will need to transform their network systems into “smart grids” capable of meeting 21st century mandates. While there is no question that today’s intelligent network capabilities can help utilities progress on the path to high performance, there is also no question that the journey to a smarter grid presents many complex challenges.
