Panel discussion
Smart Data leading to Sustainable Action
2:15 pm
At BOOST 25, the roundtable “Smart Data leading to Sustainable Action” will dive into the growing impact of data across the energy and utilities landscape. As local grids become smarter and more decentralized, the volume and complexity of data: from sensors, meters, devices, and market systems are exploding.
This session brings together experts to explore how utilities are scaling data storage, computing, and analytics to turn raw information into actionable intelligence.
From validating meter data and automating communication with grid operators, to enabling real-time insights for customers and partners, we’ll discuss how data is becoming the foundation of operational excellence.
The conversation will focus on how a data-driven mindset is key to innovation leading to reliability, affordability, innovation and a sustainable use of energy.
