Supporting dynamic pricing and complex billing need not be a huge investment.  A utility's ability to achieve the promise of smart grid technologies will be directly related to its capacity to identify, implement, and optimize the appropriate technology solutions.  At times, it may mean large, robust and interrelated systems, such as comprehensive advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) coupled with a robust meter-data-management (MDM) solution.

Often though, the right technology is not necessarily a large robust system, but rather a specialized piece of software that can help achieve the promise of smart grid technologies without the costs and resource commitments associated with massive system implementations or upgrades.  Such may the case with dynamic pricing and the associated complex billing functionality that is required to support it.

Don't miss Parameswaran Kumar (Hansen Technologies), Greg Galluzzi (Five Point Partners), and Bart Thielbar (Five Point Partners) explore alternative stand-alone complex billing solutions to see if they may represent the right choice for your utility.

According to Cisco's new analysis, the intersection and interdependence of policy, technology and economics, or Gridonomics, will drive the global transformation of electric supply, delivery and consumption; creating a more sustainable, reliable grid for the future. Too many smart-grid models neglect to include all the stakeholders: utilities, legislators, regulators, vendors, and especially commercial, industrial and residential consumers.

Don't miss Laura Ipsen, Vice President/General Manager, Cisco Connected Energy; Paul De Martini, Chief Technology Officer and Vice President, Strategy, Cisco; and Warren Causey, Vice President, Strategy Research & Advisory, Five Point Partners, LLC, explore the critical economic, policy and technology decisions needed to make the transition a reality.
