With the industry moving so quickly and in so many directions, staying current on today’s technologies and getting up to speed on tomorrow’s can be a big-time challenge. We’ve made a couple of additions to the site recently that we think can help. Here’s a quick tour.

Smart Grid Lessons Learned

You’ll find this new resource channel sponsored by Structure under the Business tab near the top of our home page. Click on it and you can browse through our growing library of case studies related to Smart Grid projects and technologies, plus articles and commentary that emphasize a “lessons learned” message. Here are a few examples:

•  Developing a Smart Grid Roadmap for a Regional Utility Company
• Leapfrogging to Smart Grid Success: Lessons from the Telecommunications Industry
• Firm Uses Internet Service Bus to Enable Smart Grid for Dynamic Energy Savings
• The Role of Transmission in Renewable Development: Sunrise Powerlink Case Study  

And of course there are lots more, so we hope you’ll take a few minutes to scroll through Lessons Learned.

Meter Data Management

With stimulus-funded smart meter rollouts picking up momentum, managing the volumes of data that will follow looms as a huge issue for utilities across the country. Fortunately there are pioneers in this space who can help point the way, and a growing number of companies offering solutions that can help both manage the data and mine it to create business value. Our new MDM channel, which eMeter has made possible as its sponsor, is located under the Technologies tab. You’ll find a variety of helpful resources such as:

• That Smart Grid Data Surge We Mentioned Earlier? You Can’t Ignore It
• High Performance in Data Management - Moving from Overload to Insights (video)
•  Meter Data Management: What's the Big Picture for Co-ops?
• Trends in Meter Data Management System Acquisitions

Again, there’s much more to explore in the MDM channel – and we hope you will!
