IT & Connectivity for the Smart Grid


The North American Electric Grid with all its components is among the most complex engineered system known to humankind. It is a system composed of many subsystems managed by independent parties bound only by a general set of rules and practices.

The GridWise™ Expo is a first of a kind event focused at evolving the technology and issues related to the implementation of the Smart Electric Grid in North America.

The Event includes:
  • Exposition
  • Conference Sessions
  • Networking
 
The event will provide:
  • Educational session on Smart Grid
  • Discussions on regulatory issues
  • Business Development Discussions
  • Demonstration of Key technologies
   
 

Vision:

GridWise seeks to modernize the nation's electric system - from central generation to customer appliances and equipment - and create a collaborative network filled with information and abundant market-based opportunities. Through GridWise, we can weave together the most productive elements of our traditional infrastructure with new, seamless plug-and-play technologies. Using advanced telecommunications, information and control methods, we can create a "society" of devices that functions as an integrated, transactive system.
