More information on IndConn

IndConn at ConnectivityWeek explores the business models and value propositions of industrial automation. Industrial automation has, for some time, been a leading area for connectivity and control networks. From process control and factory automation, devices such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) have been used to organize a wide variety of manufacturing processes, including supply chain integration and various degrees of facility management.

With the drive toward sustainable and green manufacturing, the industrial segment is now beginning to explore how automation and controls can be used to increase energy efficiency
and reduce greenhouse gases, while providing integration with IT and enterprise environments. As Smart Grid becomes a reality across the U.S. and world, industrial and manufacturing facilities will begin to explore the value propositions and business models of connecting industrial and manufacturing facilities to the grid (I2G).

IndConn topics will include:

-The Business of Energy Efficiency
-Developing the I2G Opportunity
-Smart Grids Applications for Industry
-Controlling Energy Costs
-DR and Energy Storage
-Working with Utilities and Regulators
