About Grid Dialogues

Grid Dialogues brings together utility leaders, engineers, and innovators to explore how modern utilities run end to end.

From deploying AMI at scale and building Smart Meter Operations Centers to connecting OT/IT systems (HES/MDM, SCADA, GIS, CIS) and turning raw telemetry into action with data, reporting, and automation, the show shares practical war stories, field tactics, and candid takes on AI in real operations.

Grounded in WorkOnGrid’s expertise in workforce and asset management, integrations, reporting, and visualization, Grid Dialogues focuses on what actually works inside electricity, water, and gas utilities.
AMI rollouts, commissioning quality, and SLA tracking across millions of meters. 
Data warehousing & reporting for utility analytics (from outage to NRW insights)
Building a SMOC: ingesting high-frequency meter data, alerts, and workflows.
Integration patterns with legacy systems (MDM/HES/SCADA/CIS) and IoT streams (MQTT/Kafka).
Workforce & asset operations in the field (dispatch, offline apps, GIS, audits).
Trust, security, and compliance in critical infrastructure data.
