About the event
Join us on a tour of the SCE Grid Technology Learning Center in Westminster!
The primary function of the Grid Technology Learning Center is to support electric grid modernization activities. SCE proactively forecasts system capacity needs on a 10-year forecast and equipment needs based on evaluation, proof of concept validation and pre-deployment testing. The tour will consist of visiting various labs to glean:
- Wildfire Mitigation - how we use real time data to test our equipment to prevent ignitions
- Cybersecurity protection – what we do to ensure protection
- Optimization of situational awareness – how we identify future infrastructure needs
