EMPOWER YOUR UTILITY TO MEET ESCALATING DEMANDS – RAISE SAFETY AND SERVICE WHILE LOWERING COSTS WITH MISSION CRITICAL COMMUNICATIONS SOLUTIONS FROM WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES

A PERFECT STORM OF PRESSING CONCERNS

Utility companies are heading into a perfect storm. You must keep the power on and the water flowing while keeping their employees and the public safe. While demand is growing and the industry is changing, you are being pressed to cut costs without compromising safety. Add with the rise in cyber attacks and regular threats to network security, the potential for disruption is high. The reality is, utilities must be more responsive to customers, prepare for emergencies and disasters, comply with changing regulations and secure their assets. All while ensuring safety in the field, at facilities, and throughout the community.

OVERCOME CHALLENGES WITH MISSION CRITICAL COMMUNICATIONS FROM WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES

Utility companies are feeling the heat of another set of challenges. Energy provisioning is being consumerized as customers embrace green technologies, from solar panels to electric cars. Beyond renewables, customers are so comfortable with the online experience, they can switch energy providers with a click. Environmental mandates to monitor greenhouse gas emissions mount. In less than five years, 20 percent of electric energy must be renewable for U.S. government agencies, the country’s largest consumer.⁴ Utilities that don’t comply pay serious fines. Then there’s the frequency and severity of droughts, heat waves, storms and natural disasters. That’s why mission critical communications from Wireless Technologies are imperative.
