Beyond the Meter: Extending AMI Infrastructure into Connected Safety

Utilities have invested heavily in communications networks to support metering and grid operations. But what if that same infrastructure could deliver value beyond the meter?

Join industry experts as they explore how AMI communications networks are being leveraged to support connected safety applications that help protect workers, improve situational awareness, and strengthen operational response. Through real-world examples and deployment insights, attendees will learn how utilities can extend the value of existing network investments to support lone worker monitoring, emergency response, field visibility, and other critical safety initiatives.

This session will examine the technology, business considerations, and lessons learned involved in expanding AMI infrastructure beyond traditional metering use cases, while demonstrating how utilities can improve safety outcomes, enhance operational efficiency, and maximize the return on their communications investments.

Attendees will leave with practical insights into how connected safety solutions can become a natural extension of a utility's broader AMI and digital transformation strategy.
