Virtualization in utilities: Technological innovation or necessity?

In this episode of the Energy Transitions podcast, Enlit content specialist Jonathan Spencer Jones speaks to Arnaud Cantin, Digital Power SVP at Schneider Electric and Luca Cavalletto, Asset Manager at A2A about how virtualisation is playing a game-changing role in how distribution utilities are overcoming major challenges.

In this episode you will learn more about:

• How utilities can maximise the use of existing infrastructure by incorporating greater intelligence at
  the substation level;
• The role of virtual substations in shaping the future of energy resiliency and distributed energy resources;
• Why a combination of intelligence at both central and substation levels is crucial for effective substation protection and automation;
• The key challenges that a distribution utility like A2A encounters at the secondary substation
  level, and the challenges anticipated in the future;
• The functionality of the T300 H and how it compares to the HU250 in terms of equivalent functionalities.

This episode is brought to you in partnership with Schneider Electric.
