Power systems are entering a new era. Rising demand, a changing energy mix and the need for greater resilience are driving utilities to rethink how they plan, operate and maintain the grid. Smarter infrastructure, reliable data and faster decision-making will shape the future.
This October, T&D World Live 2025 will bring together utility innovators, engineers and decision-makers to tackle these challenges head-on. From grid modernization to advanced asset management, we’ll examine how AI, analytics and digital platforms can help utilities enhance reliability, optimize performance and accelerate the energy transition.
Our team will be on the ground to connect, share insights and discuss how data-driven solutions are transforming utility operations from the control room to the field. If you’d like to meet during the event, please contact us at [email protected] to arrange a time.
