Webinar recording: Recharge Your Distribution Grid with Digital Capabilities

60 Minute Session

Grid operators are continuously looking for new ways to collect and analyse data about power distribution and consumption in near real-time. The modernised utility is flexible and resilient, with predictive and actionable information that enables the utility, suppliers, partners, and customers to efficiently manage power.

In this session, you will learn more about how Cisco IoT solutions for the distribution grid help utilities achieve the following benefits:

• Increase operational reliability through self-healing grids
• Achieve higher operational efficiency by reducing feeder losses
• Incorporate distributed generation while maintaining grid stability
• Improve system performance using power quality monitoring and distribution-level sensing
• Increase customer engagement through demand response, advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), and prosumer models
• Improve security, quality of service, resilience, and meter interoperability

We will be joined by Fluvius, the distribution grid operator in Flanders, Belgium, who will be sharing their vision and strategy about operational communications for the smart grid. In addition, we will be joined by Eximprod, who is partnering with Cisco on edge compute applications for the electrical grid (virtual RTU).
