Intelligent Utility provides utility professionals with the tools they need to develop a smarter grid and a more intelligent utility. Each issue of Intelligent Utility focuses on the practical application of intelligent technologies from a real-world perspective through case studies, best practices, interviews with those at the forefront of intelligent utility technologies and analysis of current trends, issues and events. Our features and departments cover topics necessary to develop an intelligent utility.
