Booming interest across all customer classes for energy‐reducing / energy management products and services

Codes and standards continue to threaten the viability of conventional/thermal generation

Distributed energy resources and grid‐edge energy management tools are quickly becoming cost‐effective

Our customers are changing…and customers are being disintermediated from the regulated utility by 3rd‐parties who offer more than a commoditized service

Grid Modernization Matters to Utilities• Having a cross‐departmental technology plan that 

aligns with your strategic plan

• Grid modernization continues to be a leading issue at the state and federal level – utilities are being forced to develop strategy and plans

• Transformation and grid modernization pushes utilities past their traditional capabilities and comfort zone

• DER is causing a spiraling of new complex technology initiatives that are difficult to assess

• Utilities have discrete capabilities in technical, financial and regulatory departments, but need help pulling it all together to develop strategy and engage regulators
