    The frequency and severity of disruptive weather events continue to rise and so does the pressure on utilities to harden their grid infrastructure.  While system resiliency has jumped to the top of the strategic priority list for electric and telecommunications companies, one of the foundational components of grid infrastructure, wood pole Structural ResiliencyTM, is often overlooked.

    When wood poles fail during a weather event (extreme or sporadic), more outages occur, and it takes longer and costs more to restore service. Retaining or upgrading structural resiliency reduces pole failures in major weather events which lower the time and cost of service restoration. Ensuring structural resiliency requires ongoing vigilance and Osmose’s webinar introduces a new approach to tackle the challenge: Resiliency as a ServiceTM.

    Join us for a webinar to discuss new approaches to utility system resilience, starting with the foundational elements: Structural ResiliencyTM.  We’ll share the latest proven approaches for proactively hardening your grid infrastructure. In this webinar, we will cover how to manage Resiliency as an ongoing process rather than a reactive event.
