Utility of the Future 2025 Report

Now in its third year, the 2025 Utility of the Future Survey offers insights from 103 utility professionals from across North America around their biggest priorities, concerns and levels of preparedness for the road ahead. Once again, grid modernization remains a high priority for the vast majority of utilities, and grid data management and cybersecurity still rank as the top two challenges.

What other obstacles and trends do utilities need to navigate on the path to grid modernization? What challenges does the industry feel most prepared for, and where is it lagging? And how can you take your next step toward becoming the utility of the future? View our latest report to learn more.

Advanced Metering Infrastructure and Health White Paper

In some locations, people have voiced concerns over the potential health effects of smart meters and other wireless technology. Tantalus takes customer concerns very seriously and, after deep analysis of the issue, we are confident that smart meters and other advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) present no measurable health effects.

A Turning Point in Grid Modernization: Making Data Interoperability the New Normal for Utilities

On January 30, 2024, Tantalus officially launched the Tantalus Grid Modernization Platform (TGMP™), a breakthrough technology platform that helps utilities accelerate their grid modernization efforts. The platform includes a smart grid architecture comprised of connected devices, communications networks, grid data management, applications and analytics.

Advanced Wildfire Mitigation with Smart Grid Technologies White Paper

From storms and aging infrastructure to the growing use of distributed energy resources (DERs), the utility industry faces increasing challenges to grid resiliency. Among these challenges, wildfires are a standout because of the role utilities can inadvertently play in causing them.

Learn how a Tantalus Systems customer is “going beyond AMI” by using our AI-enabled data analytics to turn granular data from the grid into actionable insights to mitigate the risk of wildfires.

Intuitive AMI Analytics for Greater Reliability and Efficient Operations

Without analytics, public power and electric cooperative utilities have been blind to much of what’s happening on their distribution networks.

TUNet Grid Reliability Analytics leverages data from Tantalus’ advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) to provide utilities with visibility into power quality issues that lead to outages and premature failure of devices deployed across the distribution grid.

Peak Demand Management with Closed Loop Voltage Reduction (CLVR)

Demand voltage reduction (DVR) is one of the simplest, most cost-effective ways a utility can manage loads to reduce peak electrical demand. Unlike traditional conservation voltage reduction (CVR), in which voltage is lowered 24×7 to decrease overall annual energy consumption, DVR provides event-based reduction only during peak times, which primarily shifts load to off-peak periods.
