Leaders in the transmission and distribution utility industry shared exclusive insights on the energy transition and the evolving grid at the Factor This Studio at DTECH 2025, presented by OATI.
Join Kraken's Energy Markets Manager for North America, Jake Varsano, and learn why the consumers' role in the energy transition is vital, the challenges and benefits surrounding a DER adoption, the value of a customer-centric framework, and more about how Kraken is making waves in the energy industry.
Building a distribution grid for the future means being prepared for what is next. The evolving energy mix necessitates digital grid solutions and a systems approach, where insight and control come together seamlessly to ensure high-quality power is delivered safely and reliably, wherever it is needed. How do operators harness large amounts of seemingly disparate data to make sound decisions and achieve meaningful outcomes? Tune in to hear from Manjay Khazanchi with Hitachi Energy to learn more.
Our grid is constantly evolving, and a range of factors deeply impact modernization and sustainability efforts. From the increased demand for aging infrastructure to the introduction of new technology, the U.S. grid needs efficient, resilient solutions. Grid modernization is an essential part of contributing towards a reliable energy supply for the future. Join Ian Rice from Wesco as he talks about how different Utility and C&I Programs and Services can help with the success of your modernization projects.
Schneider Electric is positioned at the forefront of an evolution in the energy industry, offering a comprehensive portfolio of solutions that enhance grid operations. Key offerings like the PowerLogic P7 and T500 address modern grid challenges by emphasizing cybersecurity, reliability, and operational efficiency, while initiatives like the vPAC Alliance foster collaboration to drive innovation in energy solutions.
In this interview, VIAVI Director of Business Operations Jon Beckman will discuss how operators can ensure grid reliability and resilience with communication network testing. He will also discuss the benefits of distributed fiber optic sensing (DFOS), which can improve transmission reliability and efficiency while enhancing damage prevention and helping with rapid recovery when damage occurs. Finally, he will review the physical security applications supported by DFOS.
