Siemens to unveil its end-to-end smart grid portfolio at Metering Europe in October

“The time has now come to construct Smart Grids”

Siemens Smart Grid has announced its lead sponsorship for the annual Metering, Billing/CRM Europe, co-joined with Transmission & Distribution/Smart Grids Europe and Smart Homes which is taking place from 9-11 October in Amsterdam.

In what Siemens’ CEO Dr Jan Michael Mrosik describes as the “ultimate smart utility experience”, the event will gather some 6500 utility professionals at what has become the largest industry conference and exhibition on the continent.  Says Dr Mrosik:  “this is the ideal occasion for Siemens Smart Grid to present its vision and solutions for the energy landscape of the future.  After a long phase of discussing and planning intelligent energy infrastructures, the time has now come to construct Smart Grids and to create successful business cases for utilities.”

He continues:  “global energy infrastructures are at the crux of vastly complex issues, brought about by rapidly growing demand for electricity, concerns over climate change and diminishing fossil sources.”

New guiding principles
According to Siemens Smart Grid’s CEO, utilities, energy producers and network operators need new guiding principles to define their future business cases, manage their assets and engage their customers.   He explains:  “they will have to go beyond traditional energy approaches and technologies to reinvent, innovate and collaborate. They need strategic partners to jointly define the emerging energy markets, successfully play in the markets’ many possibilities, while remaining economically robust with a reliable energy supply. “
