Smart grids on the rise

With the evolution towards Smart Grid technologies, the Power & Utilities market is facing the biggest change in the industry in decades. The Advanced Metering Infrastructure including Smart Metering is a key driver of this transformation.

Distribution Grid Operators are investing in major Smart Meter Programs to integrate new metering technology in their existing IT landscape and develop new partnerships.
