The Potential Of The Internet Of Things For Utilities

Today's utilities are striving to achieve digital transformation, just like organizations across every industry. One of the major technologies helping utilities find success—whether they deliver electricity, gas, water or telecoms to their customers—is the Internet of Things (IoT).

Smart sensors, gateways and reliable communications networks are enabling utilities to increase efficiency and effectiveness in asset management. They also enable remote monitoring and control, increase physical and data security and the productivity of workers, reduce costs, and help address the serious issues of resource depletion faced by all regions of our planet.
