As electric utilities deploy more connected devices across transmission and distribution systems, the need for secure, high-performance communication networks has never been greater. This topic explores how utilities are investing in fiber, wireless, and private LTE networks to support grid monitoring, field communications, AMI, DER integration, and control room operations. Sessions will examine network architecture, mesh networks, automation, field area networks, wide area networks, cybersecurity, spectrum strategy, interoperability, and the critical role of private networks in enabling real-time data exchange, resilience, and system automation.
