We are thrilled to invite you to an exclusive webinar hosted by Semtech (formally Sierra Wireless) along with TransCOR, taking place on December 3. This event is designed to showcase how three leading utility companies tackled some of their biggest communication challenges in #SCADA, #DER, and #MobileCommandResponse — all with the help of Semtech. During this discussion, you’ll learn how these companies: ?Overcame operational roadblocks using advanced Semtech technology ?Streamlined communications across critical infrastructure ?Future-proofed their systems for reliability and scalability

?? EUTC is proud to represent the utility sector this week in Geneva! ? EUTC's Chief Technology Officer, Jürgen Tusch, and the Technical Manager, Adrian Grilli, are actively participating in the the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunications Sector (ITU-R) meetings, working alongside colleagues from Utilities Technology Council and?UTC América Latina. Together, they are highlighting the critical role of resilient communications in utility operations to global delegates. ? ?? Utilities rely on robust radio systems to operate and maintain reliable energy supplies - a cornerstone of modern life. Securing access to appropriate wireless spectrum is essential for ensuring this reliability. While the process is complex and challenging, there are no shortcuts to getting it right. ? We remain committed to advocating for the needs of utilities and ensuring these vital systems continue to support communities worldwide. ? #Utilities #WirelessSpectrum #EnergyReliability #ResilientCommunications #ITU #EUTC #UTC #UTCAL

Hurricanes #Helene and #Milton ravaged the Southeast between late September and early October and have resulted in over 200 deaths and have caused an estimated $50 billion in damage and $250 billion in economic losses.?

This post educates on the importance of enhancing utility communications and cybersecurity measures in the face of evolving challenges. During the End of Day One at EUTC, members exchanged best practices to enhance utility operations for a safer and more cost-effective entergy landscape. CEO Rusty William of UTC addressed the critical impact of recent hurricanes in the US, emphasizing the necessity for communication resilience and the challenges in restoring power to millions of customers post-disaster. Furthermore, the discussions underscored the urgency of implementing proactive cybersecurity measures to safeguard the utility system against escalating threats and potential disruptions to the power grid. #EUTC #UtilityOperations #Cybersecurity #Resilience #PowerGrid #Challenges #Safety #Communication #LessonsLearned
