Unleash the Power of Possibility with Itron Technology Partners

September 12, 2024

As an industry-leading provider of innovative solutions, Itron is dedicated to transforming how utilities manage energy and water. At Itron Inspire 2024, we will showcase the latest advancements from our valued technology partners that empower utilities to make informed decisions, streamline operations and enhance grid reliability.  

This year’s partner community at Itron Inspire will share field-proven and pilot-ready solutions that help utilities and cities maximize the usable lifespan of aging infrastructure, elevate consumer engagement, improve operations, enhance grid resiliency, build safe and secure communities, achieve sustainability initiatives, expand the value of their multi-purpose IIoT networks and much more.  

We are thrilled to highlight this year’s platinum sponsor of Itron Inspire 2024 and valued Itron partner: Verizon. Itron and Verizon have partnered for years to apply creative IoT, machine-to-machine and cellular-connected meter solutions. Our collaboration helps ensure 100% connectivity, provides stringent service level requirements for specific use cases and optimizes the total cost of ownership by minimizing the number of mitigation devices needed in the network.  

Stop by the Verizon booth in the Knowledge Center to learn more about Verizon’s wide variety of applications, including hard-to-reach meters in an RF mesh deployment, direct connect cellular meter deployments, opt-in smart meter programs and more.
