Webinar Recording: Modernise your high-voltage substation with digital capabilities
This session will delve into how to build modern, future proof and secure reliable communications architectures to support the modernised substations, including meeting IEC 61850 and digital process bus requirements.

60-Minute session
As a utility operator, having the support and tools to effectively improve grid reliability, meet security and compliance requirements and save costs, is critical to ensuring a reliable and secure communications network.
This session delves into how to build modern, future proof and secure reliable communications architectures to support the modernised substations, including meeting IEC 61850 and digital process bus requirements.
Experts unpack and examine the multi-service capabilities, extending IT to the substation, to support a variety of additional use cases in high voltage substations. This includes the requirement for a highly available & redundant wide area network connectivity.
Additional discussion points:
- Meeting compliance and cybersecurity requirements for critical national grid infrastructure
- How you can reduce operational costs through advanced management and automation
- Case study to be presented by guest utility grid operator, Turku Energia
