Video: Boosting Electrical Grid Resilience
Grid operators share how they are using technology to ensure resiliency and reliability in the electrical grid.
Under normal circumstances, an electrical outage is not a crisis. Most electric utilities in this country have a reputation for reliability, a measure of how well the grid can avoid short-term blackouts, and for decades, utilities have been concerned with maintaining that reliability.
Regional electric grid operators recently have begun to see widespread, hard-to-predict events as their biggest threat and that electrical grid resilience is an increasing concern.
Learn from grid operators how they are using technology to ensure resiliency.
